Having reviewed the footage we captured during the day 2 shoot we discovered the the dark room scenes hadn't come out as expected and that the red overhead lighting had caused the footage to become pixelated; it is something that we have tried to rectify but due to the severity of the pixelation there is nothing we can do. We achieved the portrayal of tension and sincerity through the use of the red lighting, however the quality of the footage was so poor that it was near impossible for the audience to make out the figures that are present in the photograph that female character notices. This is a key part of the trailer as it is where the audience is aware that there is something happening; the pixilation means that we are unable to effectively present this to the audience, and so the trailer would lose the edge we are trying to create.
As a result, we have made the decision to re-film this scene without the red lighting and to use post production programmes to create a red filter, giving the effect we desired but with the quality provided when using a properly lit location. A further thing that we are going to build on is the complexity of the shots we used; having reviewed the shots in sequence we felt that we hadn't been as experimental as we could have been and so the entire sequence seems very basic. Because of this, we are going to attempt to film a number of more experimental shots that focus on the smaller details to help us add tension for the audience.
