Test footage

We learned many things experimenting,with different camera angles and lighting. In particular our opening sequence, we used a toilet sink, and some food dye to give the effect of our killer washing his bloody hands. We are fairly happy with this footage however we need to figure out how to make the blood look darker. We think we can achieve this when editing in final cut. We did several different things with the dye, we tried rinsing it with water and blocking the sink etc. We now know how to make our blood look best.

We then tried to make it look as if our killer was following the victim, and we think this work best when we held the camera on a tripod, rather than hand held, because it still gave the illusion that the killer was walking but it was clearer to see. We also concluded that two different shots will need to be taken of the reaction shot, one from the point of view from the antagonist and one from the point of view from the victim.
