Capturing and what needs to be done

After the shoot, and whilst editing our footage we noticed several continuity errors. Because we shot certain scenes with Lizzie before Josh arrived, there are continuity issues with the blood, so we will need to re-shoot scenes where she doesn't have the blood on her. Fortunately though, we don't have to re-do any of the bedroom shots, only from when she leaves the room, so we only need Lizzie and can re-shoot everything within a few hours.

On set

Our final set up, and our most difficult. We now had Josh and Lizzie to work with and do the part of the sequence involving all the blood. All in all though, this went really well and we won;t have to re-shoot any of this we reckon.

Keeping Our Actors Happy

Feeding them lunch, as was part of the contract. So far things are going well!

Lizzie's Blood and Make-up

To finally get Lizzie ready, she needed to have a bruise on her cheek and blood splattered on her face, hair and body. She did the make-up herself, using several dark colours.

 

And to put on the blood we used a toothbrush to simulate a spray, and then flicked it with our fingers to make splatter marks. It seemed to work pretty well and looked pretty realistic.

Preparing the Scene

We prepare the room for the shoot before it all begins. This included clearing the room, changing all the bed linen, and setting up the lighting and camera.

Making Blood!

We test making blood and using the waterproof sheet to see how effective it all is.

What Could Go Wrong?

After our test shoot, and in preparation for our actual shoot, we run through what could go wrong on the day.

Production deadline change

Due to a schedualed geography trip the deadline for our group has been changed. All three members are going on the trip so there is no other choice but to change the deadline. The deadline has been cut a week short for the 11th of March rather than the original 18th of March production deadline.

This means that we will have to work in a lot more dedicated fashion, getting filming over and done with quickly and spending more time on post production at lunch times and free periods in order to finish the project quickly and without lowering the quality of our final trailer. If we work efficiently this shouldn't be a problem.
