Rushers - 12/1/15 LO3

we will be using part of this clip towards the end where we redid the part we wanted two or three times so we could get the timing right of james walking down the stairs



We will be using this clip towards the beginning of the film and what is good about this clip is that he looks and sounds like someone who the main character is meant to be like.




We will be using this clip as it looks believable and the characters do a good job of banging onto the cage door where they can't escape from whats coming after them



We will not be using this clip although it looks good and we would like to use it but it's not filmed at night and doesn't make it look scary enough to fit in with the story as it's a horror.

We won't be using this clip as Finley forgot what he was saying



We will be using this clip as it doesn't need to be filmed at night because it fits in with the story where I have been running through the woods all night and on a previous clip you can see the clown when i walk in the door from a distance




We will be using this clip where one one the characters is dragged away

Contingency LO2

Upon evaluation we have decided that we will be altering our trailers storyline. The storyline instead will be a post-apocalyptic situation where a bunch of refugees are stuck inside a house and a antagonist breaks in to the house and starts harassing the survivors.

The new trailer will feature a lot of voice overs to hint at the storyline with clips jumping from calm to action to show what will be happening.
