Alterations to our 2 minute opening

We have had quite a few hiccups in our filming process which we have had to get our heads round and sort out. The first thing we did was we changed the panning shot to more still shots of the fair as we thought that the panning shot gave the sense that there was someone alive in the deserted fair. We wanted to create the sense that no one was there and this is the effect that the still shots give. Another thing we found when we originally filmed is that there wasn't really any sign that the deaths were to do with social networking and phones. To make this more obvious we have shot 5 different phone set ups for 5 different people and we have edited them all together to show that before the deaths there was lots of activity. This shows the contrast between life and death. It also shows the whole film is about phones and this creates enigma. The final thing we are doing is a P.O.V shot of one of the alive characters running through the fair and finding dead bodies with phones in their hands and blood coming out of their ears to show that they are dead. With all these shots put together, at the beginning there is a sense of life with a fast pace, then in the middle it slows down to show the sense of death and desertification and finally at the end the pace picks up again to represent the panic of the character.
