It starts out on a slow zoom in on the small Castle Byers. It goes into a panning tracking shot where it crawls down the painted wood boards going into the castle. We then see Will on the ground. The scene transfers to a dolly tracking shot on both the character Will and the monster, who is outside, not showing the monster but rather its shadow. After a quick frame of Will panicking, it then flips to a still frame and then shows the monster breaking into the Byers' castle, roaring. Only then does it pan over to Will using a shotgun to shoot into the monster's mouth using an over-the-shoulder shot. Going into a quick zoom of Will running away from the Demogorgon. A close-up of the Demo roaring in anger is shown next. Next, its cutting into a dolly tracking shot of Will running. Then flips to a backtrack to show a front angle of Will running. It switches to follow track motion for it to show Will run. It then goes back to a backtrack front-angle POV shot. A drone shot is used next to show Will climb a tree, panning at different angles. Cutting to an over-the-shoulder shot to show Will looking down from the top of the tree to a low angle showing the ground from the top of the tree as a POV shot showing what Will sees. Then the Demogorgan starts to climb the tree in a tracking shot. Will then sees another tree branch close by and jumps to it with a low-angle shot showing the jump and the lighting strike in the air. Then it turns into a tracking shot of Will falling from the tree, transitioning into a zoom out. As Will falls down to the ground, the camera zooms in on him before he gets dragged away, and eventually fades to black. It is now a pan down from the sky to show a library with a zoom-in. Cuts to the inside of an over-the-shoulder shot of the Demogorgon dragging Will. A tracking zoom-in shot shows Vecna entering the frame as he waves his hands to control vines to tie up Will. Next up, it shows a high-angle shot of Will being tied up by the vines. It turns into a tracking shot of Vecna approaching Will, with it cutting between over the shoulders of both Will and Vecna. The scenes goes into a close-up of Vecna's face as it transitions to a tracking shot of a monster vine attaching itself to Will's mouth. It then cuts to a tracking shot. The dust in the vine going into Will's mouth as it ends with a panning of Vecna to a close-up on Will. Then the title drops.

CCR question 4

How did you integrate technologies—software, hardware, and online—in this project? Explain different types of tools and technologies that helped you throughout the project: I used a camcorder to be my camera to capture this project with the help of a tripod set up to capture some shots that aren't tracking. I also used Adobe Premiere Pro to edit the movie and have Pixabay to give the sound effects and music needed for this project.  Explain the usefulness of YouTube tutorials and internet research: Internet research helped by showing me some media in horror that gave me the inspiration for this project. With a lot of the inspiration coming from the YouTube series called The Backrooms, it's having its own movie soon. Explain how you learned to use hacks and DIY throughout the project: The costumes were DIY for this film, mainly the monster since it is an old Halloween costume that I had back in middle school, and so I made my mother wear it, and she became the monster in my film...

CCR question 3

click here How did your production skills develop throughout this project? Explain how your skills grew from beginner to intermediate: I started out not knowing what to do when originally making the first round project of the original static doors. Since then, I latched onto my idea and wanted to expand on the world-building for this movie that's normally seen throughout movies. Share the process of research and planning: I was inspired by films like IT and WEAPONS to create this idea of horror. I wanted to create a film where big things were happening in a small town. Since the project has to be shorter than a regular movie, the scale needed to be shrunk down in the story so all criteria could be met. The story had to follow a one-person mystery to figure out what's going on with this noise that starts out from the TV but continues on through doors that aren't normal. That's where the story begins, sort of inspired by the backrooms. Share the process of team collaborat...
