Practice filming session

My brief for this assignment was to film a scary horror scene involving a door. Using 8 different camera angles. The purpose of this exercise was to practice using a digital camera and achieving continuity in filming and how to edit the footage this is the result.
One of the pro's of doing this exercise is that i can reflect on what went well and what did not. On reflection at looking at my final cut is that it more spoof than scary. Second that using students who study acting would work better.
My groups use of camera angles was probably the most productive and successful part of the production as our we used a collection of over shoulder, mid shot, close ups and long shots.
For lighting we only use natural lighting because of short filming times, which is one thing i will do different on our actual shoot.
The use of sound in this piece is mostly extra cuts brought in.
