Obstacles

We had an issue in our filming process because we had planned to film this weekend, on March 1st-2nd. I had found someone who had a drone for our opening shot of the car. But me and Sebastian met up this Wednesday and tried the drone, and the camera quality was not what we were expecting. The camera had an orange shade in the daytime and would be completely dark at night. We were not able to film on Wednesday due to this, so we postponed to next week, instead filming next week

So now we have to either film another scene to compensate or find another drone. Which caused us to have to begin filming Wednesday of this upcoming week 3/5. And possibly on the weekend of 3/8-9

We wanted to create a scene similar to this car, except while its driving, with the title appearing from the bottom of the car, using Adobe After Effects, while the drone is stopped, the title being "Erebus," in red, like blood, to show the genre of the movie clearly, which is psychological thriller/horror. This scene would appear near the end of the opening scene after the main character Leo gets in the car to call his therapist as he runs away from the demon Erebus. The car would speed off, and we would see the title under it as the car drove away.

We will try to find another drone to help us create this because we really like this idea.

We also had another incident where we didn't agree on a particular story. We had all agreed to do horror, and we thought that a slasher was perfect; however, our story was very iffy, and we didn't totally agree on it. We thought the story was lazy and didn't develop much thought. So we scrapped the idea and went with Adam's idea of doing a story where we take something that usually feels safe and comfortable and make it into something that makes you feel uncomfortable and in imminent danger. I decided that it would be while eating food. We all agreed that we should film at a restaurant, but after calling many restaurants to ask, none of them agreed to close so that we could film the empty restaurant. So we had to make it into a family dinner. 

Thank you for reading this. Hopefully we will be able to film on Wednesday, so we can get this over with. Our next blog will be about.
