  Forest shoot. • Theseare some images we took at Epping forest. Here we will be filming the flashback sequences in that take place in the forest. We looked through and decided on these parts as they are similar to the what we imaged when doing the storyboard. However to get these scenes to match the overall tone of the piece we have decided to either filming in low light around 5pm when it begins to get dark or to darken the scenes up when we are editing. • Here I have placed the correct locations to match the scenes drawn in the storyboard and will be writing what is needed for each part of the shot.

  • We have decidedto use this wide open space during the beginning few shots of the open of our short film as it will help set up the scene as an establishment shot. Here we plan to have the cross country running pass through as if he is running past the position of the camera, similarly as to what has been shown in the sixth box on the storyboard. Risk Assessment – when filming this scene we must be careful that the camera is not damaged specially when filming the hand held camera/ first person perspective shots. Possible Problems – As this location is in a public place we must ensure that no members of the public are around during the time of the filming of this scene. • While looking in the forest we came across this small space covered by trees to give of the look of a cave therefore we thought it would be a good idea to use this in the short film as throughout it is hinted that the killer is keeping up with the cross country runner without being seen.

  Here we foundtwo trees positioned next to each other with a gap in-between, it was important for us to find one like this as it is a shot we wanted to include as it is used in many horror/thriller films such as the ‘Wolfman’ (2011) that inspired us to use it. • Risk Assessment – When filming this scene we must be careful that the camera is not damaged specially when filming the hand held camera/ first person perspective shots. • Possible Problems – As this location is in a public place we must ensure that no members of the public are around during the time of the filming of this scene.
