Editing My Test Footage

I am editing my test footage using final cut. I have inserted in my soundtrack pro, and I am editing the videos filters and audio to experiment so I know what I should and shouldn't do when I am actually filming my teaser trailer.

My Test Footage

My Actors

Laura Turner

I have chosen Laura because she is used to modelling for Toni & Guy meaning she has paitence and has had make up and hair modelled for her already. I will therefore cast her as the possessed woman as she can easily be manipulated with her long hair and make up.

Ellicia Pendle

I have chosen to use Elli as the vulnerable woman as she is a very good actress, she got an 'A' at GCSE drama and can convincingly act scared.

First use of soundtrack pro

Here I was experimenting to find out horror sounds and to get myself use to the program, understanding the layers, how to search for different sounds, how to adjust volume and make sounds fade out.

Location Scouting

Turweston Barn

Stowe School

Initial 1st Storyboard

My Changed Concept

I have decided to change my concept as it was too similar to the trailer of 'Quarantine' however I will still use the final shot when she gets dragged along the floor. My idea is a couple are out hiking and it begins to rain, they look for shelter in barn. Man goes off to search for help and a phone. The barn has no light and she only has one torch. As she stays in there, the rain isn't dying down. They here a bang, they find some newspapers from years ago, and recent ones that have been circled and drawn over.  The woman wants to leave she can't, in background there is a possessed woman.  The phone rings, with no answer. finds a voodoo dolls of her, screams, then dragged along the floor in the same shot as the quarantines.
