Technology standard.

Operating camera/Composing shots.: Throughout the first scene we used a tripod to keep a still shot whilst recording a time lapse. The scene afterwards, we used a tripod again to show the drinks being poured and the drug (theoxidine) being put in the liquid. We used a shot held by hand to record us going out to the ou8thouse to give the effect of someone watching us walking passed. we also used a zoom feature here.  Once inside the outhouse we used a still shot with the two hands reaching around the sides grabbing the drink. This is followed by a still shot of Tom and I passing out and the camera zooming in on our faces as our eyes close. The next whole scene is held by Sam in First person view. The next part is a montage of scenes mostly recorded using tripod and a couple of held shots including the overhead shot. The final scene skips between a held shot being in the zombies eyes (first person) and a still shot from the perspective of the hanging body. Followed by first person falling to the ground symbolizing the Cannibals death by gunshot.

Recording/using sound effects: We used very little of the original audio from the videos and recorded most of the sounds over top using Logic Pro. For the time lapse we added a song (Damage - Sub vibe) as it is a fast pace song which goes well with the time lapse. we added a "brush" kind of sound to transition to the scene of Myself pouring the liquid into the cups. We used the same song except further along to give the effect of time passing. When walking out of the house, we condensed the song on logic using the condenser plug ins to make it sound as if the song were coming from inside the house. AS we progressed further out of the house, the music drained more and became a lot more quieter. After taking the drug, we changed the song to symbolize a change in time and we also added a high pitched ring to the song to make IT more realistic as the drug began to take effect. The first person shot of Sam walking through the house was COMPLETELY recorded over top. This included both Sam's voice and my voice. It also included the door opening/closing and footsteps. We added re verb to the sounds to make them sound like we were inside a room. The montage scene has Sam narrating over top of the original audio with an effect on his voice to make it sound as if he were disguising it. We used the original audio at the end of this montage as Rhys runs at the camera screaming. In the final scene, we used all the original audio but added the sound of a gun shot when the cannibal is killed.

Editing image: For the time lapse, we cut the original 20 minute video down quite a lot and increased the speed by 2000%. this made it so it was around 20 seconds long which perfectly fitted in. The next scenes were cut down a lot from the original video as there was a lot of unneeded parts. We used a fade transition in between these scenes. When we walking out to the outhouse and take the drug, we use a long fade to black transition to symbolize us passing out. For the first person scene we cut it down so that it ended perfectly when the door slams to shock the audience. Throughout the montage scene we cut all the videos down so they were only a several seconds each. To give short snappy effective images to keep the audience involved in the movie. These had regular transitions in between which were short fades. In the final scene, we cut down the parts of Michael hanging from the tree so the audience knows whats going and yet doesn't get bored. WE cut in between first person and still shot with regular snappy transitions. At the very end, we used a slo9w fade to black to show the cannibals eyes closing and to signify the end. 

Editing audio: We used logic pro 9 to edit all of our audio. The first scene with the time lapse. We used just the original song (subvibe - damage). We put it into logic and cut it down for the 20 seconds we needed it for. When walking out of the house we used the "condenser" on logic to condense the sound making it sound like its getting further away. We condensed it more when getting further away. We also edited in the new song and the high pitched sound at the end of it for when we begin to pass out. The next audio is Sam's first person scene. We recorded all of this scene through Logic and added reverb using the "platinum verb" plug in on logic. This added the effect he was standing in that room. The scene afterwards is when Sam is narrating the montage scene. We used a vocal changer plug in to his voice to make it seem disguised. at the end we changed the volume on the original track on Imovie to a higher level to hear Rhys screaming as he runs passed the camera. The last scene the original audio was used and the only audio added was the gun shot at the end as the cannibal dies. We downloaded the gunshot from the Internet and put it straight into imovie.
