Responding to Feedback
In the feedback we received from Miss Spencer, we were told that the soundtrack made the first cut sound like a trailer. Whilst we didn't want it to sound like a trailer, we also didn't want it to be just diegetic sound, as this does not create the tension needed for a horror film. We decided to get feedback from the music teacher in the school who said that it may be beneficial to use .....
When we removed the music, we realised that the natural sounds in the background were a lot louder in some shots than others. This is mainly due to moving the camera during filming. In premier pro, you can change the decibels of each shot. After altering the sound, we found that the shots flowed together much better and it made it seem like it was all a scene, rather than shots put together.
We completed filming on the flashback sequence. We decided to use close up shots throughout the whole sequence, as it helps to represent that these flashbacks are based off the memories of the killer. We also didn't want to show the actual kill, as we thought it would be beneficial to the story if we left it for later on in the film.
