Hey guys,

So, today was a bit of a busy day but after speaking with my partner we shared some more ideas on how we plan to put our film together. In order to make it the best we possibly can, an idea Sydney and I shared was having a teenage girl that is running  down a hallway with several jump cuts edited into our film so that footsteps are the only thing that would be heard and breathing before anything is shown to the audience. 

Since foley sounds are such an uncommon topic of discussion but such a prevalent part of the filming industry and have been an important part of this course,  my partner and I plan to create our own foley sounds throughout the entirety of our film. Whether it is created  with shoes clapping  back and fourth to create a sound of someone running, or blowing into a straw to make breathing sounds, we plan to evoke a sense of fear.  This is used to create suspense in the audience and a sense of fear. 

Some ideas for our production.... 

We plan to take advantage of dark lighting to make it more scary and edit several of our foley sounds like breathing or even sounds that create heart beating noises into the film to make it more intense. Additionally, another way we can create foley sounds would be using  shoes and hitting them against each other. We plan to have the main character be a teenage  girl that runs through the dark highway and does everything she can to get closer to the door at the end of the hallway, however it is locked and we plan to create a killer or a monster (we still are not sure yet) chasing her and then editing a jump cut  to someone waking up in their down thinking it was a bad nightmare.
