Filming Session

Today me and my cast members went to Anlaby House in the wooded area and did my filming. Overall, I believe it went well. I got most of the shots which I needed to get following my shooting script, as well as some improvised shots. Furthermore, while out filming I had the idea to make it so you can only ever see the antagonist's feet. The antagonist wears black Doc Martin boots, so that is appropriate for a horror film.

My cast members were easy to work with, and helped me improve and come up with new ideas, and were all willing to do as they where told. Overall, a successful filming session, but with some shots and scenes still needed to be shot on another day.

Cast List


This is Hannah Blowers. She is one of the protagonists in my film trailer. As a part of the narrative she is in a relationship with one of the other protagonists. She is wearing her boyfriends jacket as a symbol of their relationship and is also wearing a scarf to represent what season it is. The type of dress also helps resemble youth, as the trailer is for a teen horror movie.







This is Adam Blaza, he is another one of the other protagonists in my film trailer. Again, wearing casuall clothing representing youth.





This is Aaron Hill, the third protagonist in my film trailer. Again, representing youth with his clothing.









This is Ricky Boreham, the fourth protagonist. He adds to the narrative by having a romantic relationship with Hannah.






This is Chantelle Foster, the only antagonist within my trailer. You only ever see her feet, in which she is wearing Doc Martin boots. This helps add mystery to my film trailer, as well as keeping the horror side of my trailer alive. I chose to have a female antagonist as that breaks the normal conventions of a horror trailer, and would attract maybe a different kind of audience.
