We began the lesson by watching the trailer for ‘A Quiet
Place’ and then split into groups. I chose to use the school camera instead of
my phone and Jess, Ruby and I thought about good places we could film the trailer
in. our first shot was a zoom in of the face carved in rock outside of the
tunnel because it creates a nerving start to the trailer and engages the
audience. We then saw some fingerprints that had been put on the wall with red
paint which could be mistaken as blood so jumped at the opportunity of using that.
We then did a couple more shots in the mansion and sometimes held the camera as
if it was in the characters point of view to create a dramatic effect. We then
did lots with footsteps and mysterious hands appearing and the wind and crows
made it look like a horror film.
