Since we delegated different areas such as, lighting, camera shots, location and costume/props, for each member of my group to research we decided that on the first night of filming we would fulfill these roles on set while also taking turns, by rotating responsibilities to ensure that everyone contributed in their own way to the production of the title sequence. I also talked previously about this on my shot list post, but to reiterate, we have assigned each of the members of the group to be in charge more heavily over manning the camera and making significant decisions on whether to keep or be rid of a shot, and if it called for it we would take a majority vote, on specific scenes.
On the first day of filming I was in charge of deciding the position of the camera in order to gain maximum effectiveness from the lighting we were receiving via the street lights around the location. Since it is a busy road and we are filming at night there is little we can do about the light, but it works in our favour, as we are creating a low budget horror film and do not have the funds to afford studio grade lights, it provides us with a source of low key, artificial lighting helping to create shadows, adding to the tension, creating a suitable ambience throughout the title sequence.
