Lazy filming (set camera up in 3 different angles)
Don't be afraid to follow your person.
Do's
Use appropriate props - when filming horror make sure that the props are scary and grab the audience's attention and makes them want to carry on watching. For example: guns, knife's, fake blood and creepy dolls.
Stick to the brief
Always make a storyboard - so you know what you are filming and what the story is about.
Correct use of props
When possible, use a tripod - because the camera will then be steady and by holding it by hand it will be shaky.
Plan your location carefully.(background check ect)
Risk assessment - because everyone needs to be safe when filming and avoid dangerous objects.
Make props visible
Keep story simple, understandable- fewer characters
Make Shots different to the previous
Be very careful when filming , keep heads in the frame
Camera angles - different camera angles will grab the audience's attention
