Synopsis:
This
video brings you to unveil the mystery behind the Deadly Woods. Bella,Wani,Fazira and Azza, the four students who
were assigned to submit photographs of a beautiful ‘out of the world’ scenery
by lecturer
Miss Farhan, challenged
themselves to take the best shot at the Deadly Woods. Although, being refused
by one of the member
Wani, the group still
insist to go for the best which turns out to be a tragedy. Tragedy that will haunt you a lifetime and
act as a caution for you to reconsider before dragging your
feet into any woods.
Actresses: Bella, Thava, Wani, Azza, Fazira, Farhan Ahlaamie.
My Role: I acted as one of the students that went into the deadly woods. I died in the middle of the movie due to the heart attack after seeing the scary-looking murderer/psychopath.
My experiences:
I got lots of experiences throughout the process of making the story itself and producing this short movie. We wanted a quality movie that is different from other teams. Thus, we chose horror genre. We planned to shoot it at night but we do not have the guts to do so especially the title itself portrays that the scene occurs in a real wood. So, we changed the location of the shooting (at real woods) and we shot it in the evening. Although it looks easy to accomplish, the reality is different. We tried our best to deliver the emotion to create an eery atmosphere so that audiences could feel it too. After the shooting, we experienced the difficulties and hardships in editing process. I felt like it was a never-ending job as after producing the movie, we had lots of thought on audiences' response and reactions towards this movie. Will they like it? Is this enough to meet audiences' expectation? Will this be the worst movie among all?
Reflection about the subject:
In my opinion, this multimedia subject is a difficult subject because it requires lots of commitment, the knowledge on the usage of gadgets and software as well as a positive attitude. However, I gained a lot from this subject. After enrolled this subject, I got the knowledge on how to use movie maker application, adobe photoshop, Flickr, Voice Thread, DoppleMe, Canva, etc. Excitingly, these application are very useful in teaching field. They could help your teaching to be more fun, exciting and you could avoid your students from getting bored. Besides that, it teaches me to be more patient and hardworking. Of course every university students should get a chance to enroll this subject and explore those weird-never heard or explored-applications and software.
