Evaluation of first cut 

This is my logo, the voodoo doll is used to represent the production company. I edited this after effects using fade and blur transitions. the images taken of a clipart website which was edited in photoshop before being imported into after effects.

This is a dolly shot, this is when the tripod (with wheels) moves towards the actor. this shows the audience the actor and his surroundings.

This is a medium shot and the camera is also behind the actor. This gives the audience the idea that he is hearing noises and possibly seeing things behind him. Fitting in with the horror genre.

Close up of the actors feet and an action shot of the pencils hitting the floor. Creating tension as he drops them and begins to walk towards the knife, giving the imagery of anger. 

Close up of the actor pulling out the knife out of the tool box, this is done by placing the camera in front of the object you are filming. This then gives the idea that the child is possessed and ready to kill, drawing the audience in. 

Point of view shot of the mother opening the door to find what her child is getting up to. This is done by the actor holding the camera showing their point of view. The actor doesn't know what is behind the door by the audience does, creating almost an uncomfortable effect.

Over the shoulder shot, this is when the camera sits just behind the actors shoulder.  This then brings the two actors together and facing each other. Also can be another perspective in this case the demon.

Extreme close up of actors face, this is done by placing the camera directly in front of the actor. This then shows the audience the possession in his eyes (once edited).
