Re-Shoots

The first shoot myself  and my co-workers did was filmed at around about 2 Oclock therefore day light after we did this we fund that it was to light to comply with the conventions that a horror movie has. This is because in the horror genre it is dark to relate to the audience that bad things happen in the dark this is also a generic stereotype.  Therefore we re shot the trailer on the 10/11/12 and we started at 4 o'clock when dusk was upon on this gave us the perfect natural lighting we needed as it was not to light nor to dark. With this lighting we filmed several scenes however this lighting did not last long therefore we began to use key lighting through torches with these we filmed two more scenes however we got to the point where by we could not film no longer as you could not see anything through the camera.
Therefore we chose to film another day this day was the 12/11/12, on this day we managed to capture the rest of our footage therefore in the end we managed to capture better footage that  applied to the conventions of the horror genre.
Such films that apply to the horror conventions of darkness are Friday the 13th and paranormal activity however not all the  footage is done in the dark its normally in props narrative terms the scenes where  the problem occurs and then the light would symbolize the repairing of  the problem.
