Quick update!

Here's a few quick updates on everything we've done and things that are in the process of being sorted out:

The filming:

• We've managed to get a list of people that are willing to get attacked by Elena's make up, heaven's knows why or how they are okay with this. Elena STILL needs to ring her aunt to make sure her house/field is okay to use this weekend, if it isn't there will be hyperventilating and tears involved, mostly on my part. 

The editing:

• We edited the footage from last weekend during our lunchtime today and we're finally satisfied with the outcome. Last time we shot the footage indoors quite a lot of it was shaky and we weren't very happy using it. We've decided to start the whispering sounds when the camera zooms in on my eyes because we feel it is as though you are really starting to feel what the character is experiencing.

The sound:

• It's all becoming very exciting! Not that it wasn't before... It was. Khadija is heading off to her youth centre again tonight to re-edit our sound. She's going to hopefully create something amazing with the whispering sound by adding wind noises quietly in the background. I'm very excited to hear it all later tonight! She also says that there are a few musicians at the centre that may be able to make some sort of eerie piano-y type sounds for the title sequence/beginning of the film opening because we don't think the whispering sounds very good when it starts straight away.

Titles:

• Being quite a creative group we weren't totally satisfied with the dull and boring title options on iMovie, so we wanted to come up with something a bit different and more interesting to look at. After much deliberating about our titles I finally came up with a good idea, well it sounds good in my head anyway... I thought that it would look quite cool to draw up our titles on pieces of paper that we will have sponged with teabags/partially set fire to, then pin them up on random trees during our outdoor scene filming this weekend. 

We've still got so much to do and I'm trying not to panic. To my great horror I went on our media fronter page to see that Miss Foster had decided to put up a MASSIVE countdown for our film deadline (see picture). I am not sure that I'm okay with this guys..

Just to be clear that this countdown is. To. The. Second.

This was my reaction
