Preliminary

Pitch

The Pitch for our film

Storyboard

There was a few alterations to the original Storyboard, mostly because either in reality the shot was impractical due to the restrictions of green screen, or they did not look how we had originally hoped.

Workshop: Green Screen

In this Workshop we used a green screen to see what conditions it works best under.
We Learnt: In order to be successful using Green Screen, the screen itself has to be as flat and crease free as possible and it must have a strong light source.

Workshop: CGI Sets

In this workshop we created a series of digitally produced sets in order to see how easy it is to make a virtual world.
What we learnt: we learnt that creating virtual sets is relatively easy and incorporating it into the film will also be easy. We need to make sure that the digital set aligns with the real world set in order to make it look realistic. This will involve choosing locations and angles at an early stage.

Workshop: Chroma Keying

In this workshop we used our previously created sets and a green screen to see how easy it is to incorporate these designs with the film.

We learnt: we learnt that while it is possible to use this effect in our movie with relative ease, we need to choose the right colour to be chroma keyed out so that only the area we want is removed from the scene and that there is no distortion anywhere else in the frame. 

Workshop: Sound

In this workshops we used garageband and a few different input devices to experiment with creating ambiguous sound. We wanted the sound to be unidentifiable as voice or instrument so we used both and attempted to distort it as much as we could. 

We learnt: The use of bit crusher effect is very good. By using Bit crusher we are able to create a ambiguous and heavily distorted effect which is also in keeping with the idea of them being trapped in a video game, as old fashioned games had music which was sometimes bit crushed. By using vocals instead of instrument, it creates more ambiguity and is confusing and uncomfortable to listen to.

Narrative Powerpoint Presentation

Powerpoint Presentation on Narrative

This presentation covers several aspects of narrative relevant to the horror genre, including the Enigma Code and Cause and Effect. With this presentation we hoped to further our understanding of what makes a good narrative structure, and how that can be translated to a specific genre, such as the horror genre.
