Mel and I spent yesterday afternoon filming our first part of our trailer that features the group contemplating visiting the hopsital. We decided that by using only 3 friends to feature in the trailer would be better as it cuts down on filming time as we only have 40-50seconds to show everything. So now our trailer will feature the 3 friends in woods (on a camping trip) who are telling ghost stories where they decide to visit an abandoned place and still the gas masked figure.
Unfortunately we were unable to gain access from security at Whipps Cross hospital to film in and around the buildings so we are now in the process of finding another suitable location. We are also going to re-shoot the footage that we got from yesterday as we encountered a number of problems:
1) Lighting - due to the time of year, it got really dark really quickly. We did provide some eerie lighting through tealights inside lanterns but this was still inadequate.
2) Weather - the wind made it very hard to hear any dialogue that was spoken so we are now discussing having no audio from the actual footage, but with a voice over added with music.
Mel and I have taken all of these problems into consideration so when we go to re-shoot we shall bring adequate lighting and film enough footage before it gets to dark so we do not have to switch to night-vision half way through.
