Turns out being chased by a monster is hard to film.

 

Yeah you read that right. Recently we were given the task of recreating a short horror film called: Run!.

If you watched that you can tell that it’s very professionally made. Us as teenagers with IPhones and no microphones could not make something that good but we definitely tried.

 

We had a week to create the first draft. (Sadly one day was taken away due to a blackout) Me and my group got straight to filming, we scouted our location and created a storyboard. Then we went out to our location to get our filming done. It took about two days to do all the filming and sounds. The last couple days we used for editing. I edited our movie and added all the sounds. I realized too late that the running sounds were out of time and didn’t sound the greatest.

 

This is our finished first draft:

 

After we presented our first draft we had to reflect on how we did and what we could have done better. My group talked about how the location wasn’t realistic and didn’t really work in our favor. We also said that we wanted to try to make our monster scarier.

 

We had about three days to film and edit our second draft. We looked it over and found a new location to film that matched the scenery better. The filming went a lot smoother and we got it done much quicker then last time. I was in charge of editing again so I tried to match the running. It worked at the start…but by the end it didn’t match at all. My group and I didn’t have enough time to film the running audio so it didn’t really link up.

 

With all that done here is our second and final draft:

 

 

I hope you enjoyed watching all the videos! 

 

Bye for now…
