Minutes of the meeting

In the meeting today we discussed if I should steady the opening shot. After some debate between the group members, we decided that it would be necessary as it could make the difference of the entire project maintaining the professional quality. Therefore I tracked the footage and then added a steady filter to the footage. This was all done using Adobe After Effects. The reason why the footage wasn't steady to start with was because I didn't balance the Steadicam well enough, which resulted in emphasizing the faults.

Below is a YouTube tutorial, explaining how to steady footage.

Minutes of the meeting

In today's meeting, we discussed the plan on what we wanted to do with our after effects editing. We all agreed for a dark hint of blue color correction, as we thought that the darkness would help to show that the film is in the night time and the blue would also help to give it a cold horror feeling to the entire production.

Minutes of the meeting

Today when filming we started by having a meeting. The meeting was about one of the shots we where unsure about. In our story board we had wanted to film a birds eye view shot of the bed and then have the camera float down to a close up shot of the protagonist. The reason why we where discussing the shot was because we had found that the shot was not stable, even when using the Steadicam and very difficult to film. Therefore we made the decision to change the shot to just a birds eye view. From this we made some minor adjustments to the story board. Also this meant that we didn't need to use the step ladder for the filming of shot, instead we used the tripod.
