Complications

 COMPLICATIONS

One of my biggest complications in this filming process were the wood scenes. My mom and I heard many different frightening noises coming from the woods which spooked us a bit but added a lot to the making of the videos. I wanted to have natural background noises in my shots which I achieved. 

A complication factor was the lighting. Some of the clips I tried to film were blurry since it was very dark outside and I had to redo many of them. This complication was one of the things that took the longest and held me back. Even though my mom and I tried filming with flash, it still turned out a bit blurry and still too dark. In a way I learned how to cope with it and figure it out. I told myself that some of the clips that turned out a bit too dark or blurry added to the spookiness of the opening. None of the shots were too blurry or too dark but I started looking at some horror film openings in the woods and most of them are like that. Still, the darkness was a major problem but I figured it out by going in to the areas that have the most light and holding up the flash while I'm recording.

Overall, I think this project was a fun adventure and many laughs were shared through the process of it.
