Our film involves several tricky shots in order to create suspense, continuity and verisimilitude. For example the first shot used within our short film includes the title sequence. This involves fade in and fade out editing and editing in a blinking form. The aim of this edit is to demonstrate Lily going in and out of consciousness. The plan for this is demonstrated through our story board:
To replicate this effect we will edit during post production. This effect will create suspense within the opening title sequence of our film establishing the films genre as suspense is a key convention within thriller genre. To create the edit of losing consciousness we used a fade to black repetitively within the clip.
Focus pull is a second tricky shot we aim to use within our production. Below is a video I created demonstrating a simple manouvre to create a focus pull.
Our focus pull will feature our character Lily in the
foreground and the prop of the knife and knife rack in the background.
The shallow focus will alter from Lily to the knife signifying her
thoughts of killing Brett and creating tension. In order to perfect this
tricky shot we will create several pratice attempts.The focus pull
portrays one of our films key themes; death and psychic ability.
