Experiments with the camera…

First person camera

To get the first person shot for me climbign the tree i decided to hold the camera myself. Of course i couldn;t climb the tree one handed and hold the camera, so instead i sued duck tape to strap the camera to my face, then i climbed the tree. This meant it was almost exactly what i would see when i was climbign the tree, as if it was through my eyes.

Underwater cameraTo get the high angle shot looking up at me walkig towards the lake. I used an underwater goggle camera i have, thn filled a large box full of water in my garden, placeed the camera undwater water, so there was a tree in shot, then acted out walking towards the camera. This ended up working really well becuase it looked relasitic, and added with the sound fo the underwater effect.

Non Diegetic /Sound TrackThe soundtrack I used in my opening is used in the real game, which I thought not only made the authenticity of the film more realistic. But it also sounded great with the opening...
