Second Shoot


This is our edited 2nd shoot, we worked on the points raised by both ourselves as we watched our initial shots and the feedback we got from our target audience. We added canted angles for the shots using flickering lights in order to create a greater sense of confusion and fear. We also added a lot of footage to help make the film more credible and make more sense - for example, the linking shots between the titles and the opening shots, our character taking a mug into the kitchen to explain her moving rooms and the phonecall explaining the purpose of the typewriter. We re-shot any shots from our first shoot that were unsteady and jolty, and included more CU's and shot-reverse-shot to help make the plot clearer and align the audience with the character. 

After editing our 2nd shoot, we looked at our film so far and decided that the shot of her on the phone was much to long, and we needed to either re-shoot and cut it down into either more shots or just shorter length or split it up within the scene. We also needed an ending as it didn't make sense and ended very suddenly. We decided on a shot involving the typewriter to bring that element back into the storyline and help it become a key point in our plot.
