Editing the Film

I edited Scene 2 and 3 (the ones I directed) in Premiere Pro. Some editing was started right after filming.

 Other Effects such as blood was made with After Effects.

Filming Day 3

Yep, we had another filming day because composition for the first scene wasn't very good. 

"This is it!"

In my opinion, we improved in Composition, even the acting turned out better than last time.

Filming Day 2

30th December was Filming Day 2 and this was my turn to Direct Scene 2 [Ellie's House] and Scene 3 [Outside Warehouse]. The weather was cloudy and while shooting outside, it rained. We stopped for an hour and continued after. 

The Crew and Actors discussing the scene and ready to shoot.

The guards scene was not planned like this. Basically, what I had in mind was to stealth the guards from 

behind and enter quickly. But since it was a big place we decided to do it better by having the two guards have a little funny conversation, then a fight. We then decided that they'll knock out the guards by first using a distraction (stone) and then Ellie knocks out the second guard.. When the first thug goes to see what has happened, Alex knocks him out with a big punch. (Originally having a small fight scene with Thug 1)

We then filmed Scene 2 in a bedroom for Ellie's House.

After that scene, we filmed Scene 4 - Inside the warehouse

Filming Day went very good and better than expected. This was the end of filming (well.. that's what we thought) 

Filming Day 1

Filming Started on the 29th of December and we filmed the first scene. The 'Shelter' opening took a lot of time to film as we wanted to include the main characters 'Grave Robbing'.. It took about 3 hours to find a good place to film in grandma's basement as it is big and we needed to find a good spot to make it look like a shelter. After that we started filming the upper part of the basement. 

Pictures on Filming Day

After filming on that day, I made a sample edit to see how it should look like. I was really satisfied and was ready for the next day of filming..
