After filming, editing, experimenting, and eventually changing our idea, we decided to include features related to hallucinations. This would allow us far more freedom and creativity in our filming.
In order to understand it more, we did some research on hallucinations.
"Hallucinations are vivid. They are distinguished from dreaming, which does not involve, illusion, imagery, and pseudohallucination. Hallucinations can occur in any sensory modality — visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, tactile, proprioceptive, equilibrioceptive, nociceptive, thermoceptive and chronoceptive." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucination

Types of Hallucination
Visual - Seeing things that are not there/Seeing things that are there, but incorrectly or distorted
Auditory - Sounds (hissing, whistling etc) and voices/music
Olfactory - Smelling odours that are not physically present (e.g. Watching a romance movie and smelling the scent of roses)
Gustatory - Experiencing an imagined taste in the mouth (e.g. Watching a horror movie and tasting blood etc)
Tactile - Feeling pressure on skin or organs (e.g. Bugs crawling under skin etc)
Proprioceptive - Individual's perception of the body, joints, movement etc
Equilibrioceptive - Sense of balance
Nociceptive - Pain receptors/nerve system (e.g. Feeling imaginary physical pain with no cause)
Thermoceptive - Perception of temperature (e.g. Feeling cold when imagining ghosts/spirits)
Chronoceptive - Perception of time and the passing of time
We have decided to focus predominantly on visual hallucinations, as it will allow the audience to believe that the images our character sees are real. This will cause confusion and unease, which in turn will create the tension needed for our opening.
Some hallucinations we have decided to present in our opening are:
1. A cloaked, masked attacker
2. Bloody hands
3. A hanging body
We are going to look at adding a different filter to the clips which show these hallucinations, in order for the audience to differentiate them from the other clips, without making it obvious as to why.
