Filming Process

 I planned to only take a day or two to film my entire opening scene for Scrow. Lucky for me, It only took me one night to film the majority of my shots! Those shots being the victim cleaning up the kitchen, turning off the TV, closing the door (without locking it :) ) and more shots that display the chores done by the person before falling victim to Scrows terror. Most shots only took a couple takes and took me an overall 1-2 hours to shoot the entire opening scene. I shot the entirety of my film with an iPhone 11 and had ZERO problems with recording. Although the quality isn't top notch, it definitely gets the job done with 4k and HD options. If anything, It is quite impressive how such a good camera can be compacted into such a small device. I was also lucky enough to find a dedicated actor who did me a HUGE favor by contributing to my film. So for that, I would like to introduce you to my main actor (who played the victim) Deniz Izak.

Deniz was very good at knowing what I wanted in each scene. He did not try to do anything obscure and followed the exact script and directions. I genuinely appreciated this because it not only made the overall scene well executed, but also made it so we could film this as quick as possible without wasting much time at all. The quick filming gave me more time to do things such as editing. So I would like to give a HUGE thanks to Deniz.
