The Making Of the Captive

The shot for this film was actually inside my cupboard, my teammate Will squeezed inside with a camera and filmed me pacing around on his phone inside his room. Unfortunatley my cupboard didn't have a keyhole. The keyhole shot was achieved by having the cupboard door open and placing a sheet of paper with a keyhole shape cut into it over the cupboard entrance. At the end I has to open the cuboard door and assault the captive within, this was achieved by danny placing his hand over the keyhole, whilst the camera was obscured the paper was removed and the door to the cuboard was shut, with the door now shut the film can carry on as normal, but to make full effect of our lighting equipment we backlight me from behind whilst the cupboard door was closed so the when the door opened it looked like the captives eyes where adjusting to the level of light.
