Evaluation of first attempt of filming

On set while filming (Monday 6th December) we always felt that there was something missing, our understanding of a teaser trailer was to use quick edits from various parts of the film. However when attempting to do this too much of the plot of the film was illustrated and not enough scary bits were portrayed. Although we were very organised, as we manged to source a set of twins as well as finding an adequate location while gathering suitable props e.g boxes and candles. When filming we already had an established shot list which allowed the flow of filming to fun smoothly.  

 Once uploaded onto the computer we realised that some of our shots were held for too long and certain titles e.g "she only last 28 days" and "but how long will she last" were misleading. Therefore we decided to change the titles to make it more clear to the audience the message we were trying to get across, without giving too much of the plot away. Such films as "The Amityvile Horror" influenced our decision to use a wide range of titles in order to let speak for the film. The title of the film "The Illusion" when added into the film came across too 'bouncy' as it shot in and out of the screen, so in order  emphasis our genre  and create a more macabre effect we used a soft edge title.
Overall filming was successful , however we have made plans to re shoot certain scenes where the acting was poor as well as adding in additional more horrific scenes.
