Production: Scouting the Film Site

 So far, no filming has taken place.  Neither has any editing.  However, we have been preparing for filming.  One of the hardest things we have had to do for this project was find a good location.  Originally, we wanted an abandoned building.  But, no buildings that look remotely abandoned can be found around where we live because of the population density.  So, we had to switch the setting of the story.  We chose to make the new setting a forest, because that is much more general and easier to find.  Or so we thought.  It turned out that finding a forest in a densely populated area was almost just as hard.  We visited multiple parks and found locations that could work for filming.  However, the best places were too far away for all of us to meet at.  Luckily, we found a park between our houses that had enough trees to look remotely like a forest.   The park has a lot of locations that we can use to film.  O...

Production: Finding Possible Solutions to Dilemmas

 As mentioned in previous blogs, the place we will end up filming at is a public park.  We decided to film there because they have an area with enough trees to pass as a forest with some clever camera work.  The park is not that large, but it is quite popular.  This is a problem for us because we can not film anyone in the background of our shots.  Luckily, we plan to film the project towards sunset.  Hopefully, this will mean that there will be less people there to worry about.  Another big problem with the park is the fact that it isn't that big.  This means that there are no designated camping grounds anywhere in it.  This is a dilemma for us because we intend to set up a tent for the campsite setting.  Since the place we want to shoot is a public area and not a campground, we can't put a tent up.  This is a big problem, but there are ways around it.  One way would be to call the park and ask them for permission to set up a ...

Production: Recruiting Actors

 As you probably already know, our project is going to be about a horrific camping trip.  So, it is necessary to create the setting as well as we can.  We already plan to use a tent to make it look realistic.  But, that is not the only thing that a campsite needs.  A usually overlooked aspect of campsites is that there are mostly more than one person at each of them.  For our film, we need at least two.  I say "at least" very sparingly, however.  This is because I only mean it in the sense that we need one person to die and one person to live to have the movie continue passed the opening.  But, that wouldn't be very entertaining or realistic in a movie.  So, we need more actors.  Not only do we need more actors to make the opening appear more realistic, but also in order to make the campsite look more populated.  In our script, we included 4 characters.  I will be playing one of the characters.  Specifically, I will p...
