Filming day 1

Our first night of filming was at Paul's house. We decided to film outside first as it was dark and a full moon; this was perfect for our film as it conforms to the stereotypical horror genre. Filming the moon was quite difficult as we couldn't get the camera to stay still; to resolve this we put it on a tripod. We introduced the vampires first; showing them walking powerfully towards the house, to add to the atmosphere of a house party, we included music. Next, we filmed indoors the introduction of the slayer and the future victim of the head vampire. We chose to show the slayer (me) as a stereotypical blonde teenager like portrayed in "Buffy the vampire slayer" and the "scary movie" series. We then filmed the scene in which I accidently decapitate the head of the victim. This was to add some comedy, as our genre is a "spoof". Fake blood and a Tin-foil sword; were used as props in the scenes we filmed. A few problems occurred whilst filming mainly laughing during filming but this was resolved by filming the scene again and in the editing progress. this was an enjoyable experience.
