Equipment/Props/Software used

Equipment

Canon 1200D
This was the primary camera we used to film with. It was useful because it is a DSLR meaning that we can exchange different lens and focus easier.
Canon 700D

Later during the filming process, we upgraded cameras to the Canon 700D. This DSLR has a microphone jack.

RodeGO Mic

This microphone was vital to making a proffesional film trailer as the in-built microphones in cameras are not very good.

Tripod

We used a generic cheap tripod to make sure the shots were stable.

Glidecam

For some of the shots we used a glidecam. Glidecam's are really good for showing movement but with little shake or stutter.

Props

Butchers Apron

To make the trailer believable as possible we each brought props to use. Jak bought a butchers apron for him to wear as the antagonist in the trailer. We wanted a butchers apron because it fits with the horror film, similar to how you see mad scientists like this one in the 2005 film "Hostel".

Fake Blood

We didn't want to use any tomato ketchup or anything similar as we wanted to make the film trailer look as good as possible. I purchased some fake blood off amazon which worked amazing. It looked really realistic and also dried like real blood and stained like real blood which added to the overall effect.

Missing Poster

Isaac made a missing poster for himself. This was used in the film trailer to connote that people have stopped looking for him, as the poster is dated and on the floor in a puddle.

Software

Premiere Pro CC 2017
Premiere Pro is the program I used to edit the short film on. This is one of the indusrty-standard editing softwares.

Photoshop CC 2017

Photoshop was used to create all the graphics such as the film poster and the magazine cover.
