For my final project, I’m going to explore making a “found footage” short film. The story is going to be fictional, but I’m going to record myself, relay information, and present it in a non-fictional way that gives the impression that I am actually experiencing these things in my life. The first movies that come to my mind when I think of found footage movies are blair witch project and paranormal activity. Those would be examples.
I want to explore playing with my footage and adding effects to the visuals and the audio to make it seem like these events occurred a long time ago. I have an idea in the works that I will realistically be able to execute, but I need to sort a few more things out. I have the “bones” of the story complete. I just need to sort a few minor things out.
