Editing - Underwater

•  We used an underwater camera for the bobbing for apples drowning scene
• We wanted to use an underwater camera to show the victim and we thought it would be effective within our trailer
• When we came to edit the underwater footage we found that because the container we used was fairly shallow, the actors face was very close up and was sometimes unclear
• When editing we decided to show more footage of the actors face plunging into the water instead as this was more effective and much clearer
• We also tried reversing the footage of the actor bringing their head up from the water to see if this looked better
• We chose to include also an over the shoulder shot of the antagonist forcing the victims head under the water to show that it is bobbing for apples which reflected the torturous party element
