Test footage - Laurel Drew and Jamie Parrett

These are some of the shots we have already filmed before they have been editing. We will potentially be using them in our final film.

This is the establishing shot of the field. This is one of the main settings where the rest of the film will take place. It is where the girl is attacked. 


This is another take of the previous shot so we can decide which looks better.


 This is another shot of the film when the camera begins to focus onto the phone thats lying in the grass.


 This is the same as the one above again giving us two shots to choose from to make sure we get the best footage for our film.


 This shot is a bit closer to the phone beginning to focus more onto it showing it's importance to the film.


 This is a close up shot of the phone from an angle where we will see it ringing the various characters.


 This is another close up of the phone from a different angle so we can see which angle looks best for the final film.


Again this is another close up of the phone but from another different angle giving us more choice.


 Again this is another shot of the phone from a different angle.


 This a close up of a different phone when it is ringing the characters. This shows us what the shot will look like if we used a different phone in the final film and allows us to see if the names of who the phone is ringing will show up on the camera.


 This shot is still a close up of the phone ringing the characters but you can hear that the person at the other end isn't able to answer. This is another idea we could use for our film to show that they don't hear the phone. We may use this idea in our final product.


 This is another close up of the second phone without the answer phone. This gives us another choice of which shoot to use in our final film.


 This is a shot of the character Jay walking though the woods without his dog so we can get an idea of how it will look and what position the camera could be in when we film this shot for real. This could also be a possible location for other scenes throughout the film. It also shows us what the shot will look like without the dog and we may use this shot instead depending on which looks best in our final film and if we are able to get a dog to film.


 This is another shot of Jay walking through the woods but from a different angle and camera position. This allows us to see what the shot looks like using different positions of the camera and allows us to see what looks best. We might also use this shot as one of the shots for match on action to be used when the character answers his phone.

This shot may be used as a potential part of match on action. Jay is answering the phone allowing us to get an idea of the angle and camera position to shot this where it's directly in from of him of slightly to one side. Also we may have him walk past the camera showing him continuing his journey. 



These test shots allow us to get possible ideas of locations, camera angles and positioning. They also allows us to find out a bit about how we want the lighting and how to make it look like the character is being watched. The shots of the phone also what type of props we could use and want potential costumes we may use. The answer phone message also gives us an idea of how this may look and whether or not to use this in our final film.

  1. Well framed especially the first shot thats the one i would go with and use the smaller phone why not set up a tripod and shoot the phone on the ground an get really close up try a macro setting on the lens. The shots of Jamie are good why not shoot him again from many angles this will give you lots of footage to work with.
    Well done
