The filming of 'Infernum' & filming log

We started initial filming on the 18th of November at around 3pm. At this time the lighting was starting to get dark, ideal for our film.

The scenes first filmed were just to get used to the location and some establishing shots of the character. We used a field around the Brambleside area as well as a nearby forested area. 

Here are some shots of the area. Coincidentally, and in the spirit of our film, there was a noose already in the tree which we thought was worth photographing for possible use in the poster or double page spread. It also looks incredibly eerie and creepy.

This panorama shot shows the setting - the forested area where some shots were taken, the costume of the main character and our 'cameraman'. This is where the first scenes were filmed, in the scenes it is mainly the character walking through the forest which
allowed us to experiment with camera angles and shots like long shots and low angles.

When filming our film we used a stabiliser for the camera. This means that the film shots will not look handheld and shaky as this would look unprofessional and not give the right impact for our genre of film as it would for a 'found footage' film, for example.

This picture shows how  we tried to achieve different angles when filming Here, we are trying to capture a low angle of the main character walking to show the ominous setting and because it adds texture to the film as having the same angles will look boring and repetitive.

A major aspect of our movie is the cult scenes. For this, we needed cloaks to retain the mystery and anonymity of the cult. The scenes were all long shots as to show the whole body and full length of the cloak and keeping the aspect ratio so that the body was the only thing featured in the shot
