Behind the Scenes of Our Thriller (Outdoor Shots)

As we filmed our thriller, we also had a secondary camera to film what exactly went in to making our film. It really is interesting to review the footage and remember how we shot things and also how Ben (the director) organised different shots.

With in this section, we see Ben organising different fast shots of our extras, this technique proves wonderfully effective when edited in to the piece, by speeding them up and showing them together it acts as a partly shocking effect and also an ingenious technique to make longer shots less laborious.
        We see 2 different people taking part in the shots, and Ben explaining exactly what we wanted them to do.

This was an interesting shot, because i was not so sure of it. However, it ended up working relatively well. We see Ben directing almost all of our extras, clearly stating what he wanted from them, and kudos to our extras as they were incredibly cooperative and seemed to be completely committed to producing a good film, we could not have done it without them.
         It also seemed prudent to gather some feedback from our extras, seeing as they were all apart of it too, we supported them and took any recommendations they might have had in to account.
