More experimenting with camera shots/angles

We have experimented further with camera shots after completing our storyboard to see how they worked 'in real life'. We found that although handheld camera was shaky this was appropriate for some of the chase scenes as it creates a mood and makes the audience feel in touch with the action.

We have seen it in films such as the Blair Witch Project, and also Cloverfeild - in both cases the hand held camera was effective and makes the film more scary.

In our story board we are planning to have a lot of fast paced editing as this will increase tension and the speed of the film especially during the chase scenes. We have seen this when researching in films such as Psycho. We are planning to have a variety of camera shots - long, medium and closeups, it will increase pace in the film.
