We used extreme close-ups on the mock diary entry which had out of focus shots which may be used in the 5-minute film in order to indicate something is out of place or unusual. We also used extreme close-ups on the male's (Jordan C's) eyes which will be used in the film. We used Jordan C's room to film practice shots as we admired the dim lighting which gave a distinct atmosphere which also allowed shadows to be cast on Jordan C's face. We will use this room as the male's bedroom as it this effect is misleading and would cause the audience to make negative assumptions about the male's character, when the female is the one to wary of. In contrast, we will use Jordan H's room to film the female's bedroom scene as the room is a lot brighter.
Slow panning shots were also used, similar to the short film, 'Hello Again'. We also used a zoom shot of the female (Jordan H) in this clip to signify that this is an important character. The clip where the image fades out and the sound continues was used to give an example of the voiceover which will be recorded then attached to the film as non-diegetic sound. The titles used in the practice montage are very simple and won't be like the ones we'll use for the finished film. They were simply used just to give an example of titles within the compilation.
The POV shots of the female character in the library will be used in the film. We will also use over the shoulder shots of the male looking through the bookshelf. This makes it clear that this is a POV shot from the male's perspective. Placing the camera almost inside the bookshelf gives a slightly claustrophobic effect which relates to the uncomfortable feeling someone gets when they feel they are being followed. In addition to this, it causes the audience to focus solely on the female - which the male is doing.
