The Quest to Soundtrack II

On the second part of my quest, I came across a website, named Incompetech, which is a royalty free music website, founded and maintained by Kevin MacCleod. There are hundreds of tracks free for download, of all genres. I found a track that would fit into our product. I found it in the horror and suspense category of the website. The video above was one of the finest horror soundtracks I coud find.

The Quest to Soundtrack I

In the first part of my quest to find music for our product, I came across this video. It's called '13 Days of Nightmares' and it is a royalty-free soundtrack, meant for free use in projects like ours. The ambient sounds and spooky feel will work great in our dark horror scenes. I was quite lucky to find this early, as it appeals to all the members in the group.

My Name is Adrian

A key part of the first few scenes in the film is establishing who Adrian is, and how the audience should relate to the character. To make it as blatant as possible, we decided to create a badge for Adrian to wear to show the character's name and the company he works for. The plain grey colour scheme shows how boring the company he works for is, and how grey and miserable the character is at the beginning of the film.

Practicing tricky shots

It's nearly time for us to start filming our project so before we went out into the field, we decided to practice a few of the tricky shots we might encounter. To achieve the desired effect, we used various methods and techniques both in production and post production. The finished video is below :-)

Scene 1 - Risk Assessment

Above is the risk assessment for Scene 1 (Yo Adrian) carried out by Connor Jackson. It follows Sean Martin walking down a corridor. The risks are very minimal to start with in this scene, but all risks must be assessed.
