Set Design #2

After talking about the "Ben writing the letter" scene, I decided that I want to discuss the "crime scene" scene. Wow... that sounds weird. "Crime scene scene." Anyway... like I said in my previous blog post about choosing a location, my group and I decided to film this scene at our local park. We chose this because we thought that at night, it gives a creepy, eerie feeling. 

We found a spot in the park next to a lake. Throughout the whole time we were filming, I was a little nervous considering we were next to a lake at nighttime. I was really hoping this wouldn't turn into a real crime scene. During one of the clips we had to film, I practically had one foot ready for an alligator to eat. 

As you can we had to be creative when filming certain scenes!! Anyway, once we found our spot, we made it look more like a crime scene by putting caution tape, evidence markers, and tracing a "dead" body. I will talk more about this in my next blog post, but let's just say it was a struggle...
