Messing around with the lighting


The colour of the lighting is important because it can create a lot of different moods and also depends on what atmosphere we are trying to create 

Isaac - GarageBand, foley sound

I experimented with lots of different types of foley sounds such as the footsteps. I went for a deeper frequency sounding footstep due to the given circumstances of the ground and also the mood of the thriller. Sounds such as the glass smashing were all layered with more than one sound effect to give more of a depth of sound. For the bullets I increased the sound to enhance the action and get the audience on the edge of their seats. Overall I'm pleased with the outcome.

Isaac - White Balance

In our prelim task, for some shots inside the dark room we forgot to use White Balance. This decreased the image quality and gave it a grainy effect. However the unsaturated look gave the effect we intended.


I took some pictures to show 'before and after' the use of white balance. This was the outcome: 

Isaac - location research

Whilst watching the program 'Sherlock', i came across this location which suited the theme, put forward by our task. It is isolated and gives off a chilling and creepy sensation.

Location location location

 
I found these pictures of an abandoned house which could be a gripping location for our thriller film.
This could be used but may need quite a bit of lighting as well as props to emphasise the scary nature of the place.
