Digital Cinematography Final

As much time as I spend worrying about this project, I figured I should at least post something on it.




The first scene was shot in Stockton, early from 7am - 8:30am in a field off a rural road. It was raining that night and that day in Sacramento, and if I wanted to mimic the change of morning that occurs in Lawrence, I had to get to where it wasn't raining.
For light we used a bounce board with foil. The blood was created by Jennifer Morris using ketchup from Jack-in-the-Box after we realized we forgot the premade fake blood at home. Only had to deal with the cops once on this one. Lots of great shots in 60P, and a few where I play with the shutter speed.




We shot the second scene two days later, using Mark Rodrigues' car. I set up a tripod, CTB'd the passenger windows, silked the back window, and used a homemade kinoflo to light the interior. Shoot time was less than 45 min. Even got a cool shot where we extended the tripod to get a shot out the sunroof.
