Shocked Jess - VFX breakdown
And now a break down for the reverse shot. Jess says "f**k" a lot in this video haha!
"Run!!!" VFX Process Demo
When time is short, we need to get creative with how we shoot things. In this instance, we didn't have the time to take the team all the way up to the moors, light and shoot a scene, so we did what any indie operation would do next - we blagged it on a green screen. Sorta.Step 1: Film the shotAg...
Unused Shots: Season 1 Live Promo
The simplicity of the Season 1 promo (https://youtu.be/LV461jEnnBI ) meant that we only needed a small selection of shots in order to put it together. Though, as with most things, there were shots either replaced with alternative takes or left on the cutting room floor altogether.These were also ins...

Here we can demonstrate taking a particular lighting setup and working it into something that feels as if the scene takes place in the night-time ...

Test Scene - Jess and Emily - Episode 5
Test scene between Emily and Jess (as heard originally in Episode 5) - the dialogue has been cut right back for the purpose of the test but you should be able to reckoning things fairly well!The sound is pre ADR, meaning that it's not a clear as it would be in a final version. This generally is ...
What Jess Saw - Video Test
As part of the, as yet, secret project, we took both Elle (standing in for Danni) and Michaela and had them recreate the scene where Jess follows Emily into the moors...This wasn't the full scene as it played out in Episode 6, so much more a demo of VFX and compositing certain elements.
