Filming

One we had finished planning we were ready to start filming. We filmed over a two day period, shooting after school at each different location. For our first shot we headed to Whittington hospital, we needed a close up of the hospitals sign to give the viewer a basic understanding of the trailers storyline. We decided to shot free hand as if the sign is being seen from the killers perspective. We then moved across the road to the Archway campus to film the hospitals establishing shots. Although the campus isn't actually a hospital because of its gothic architecture we thought it would be the perfect location for 'Ward 13'.

Our second location was Hampstead heath. These shots took a lot longer as we had more to film. Firstly we filmed the running shots, we got Yann to run around the camera whilst we tracked him. We did this as it was the most efficient way to get long running shots without taking the camera off the tripod. We then shot the girls praying scenes in a hidden corner of the heath. We placed red candles around the area and started to film. By zooming in on the candles we were able to create a very sinister shot. We then shot the killing scenes making the villain run up behind the girl. we shot this at a low angle to show the power the killer has over the viewers.

Lastly we shot a close up on the killers face whilst blood was being thrown over him. Again we shot this at a low angle with the killer looking down on us. With this shot we waited until the blood dripped off the mask before we stopped filming for the day.
