the story of production

The process of filming began with my actors coming over at my house so we could get started with the first scenes. The opening scene is when the main character wakes up to the noise of static on a TV. Working on the clips for that scene first was important because it set the tone and the plot for the whole film. The next day we went to the beach first to film one scene for the movie. The shadow demon was lurking behind the main character. Then after that location scene wrapped up filming, we moved along to a parking garage to film another location-based scene to allow for more world-building during the film. This is also the same place that we shot the alleyway scene for the movie. Needing an actual ending, we went back to my house a week later, filming the final scene. For the last bit of filming, we had to go back to the alleyway because we originally shot a scene that didn't make sense. So to fix that issue, we did a reshoot of the scene with an alternate ending that integrated better into the plot.

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...
