Video, Titled: Within The Darkness

I worked in a group of three to produce this video based on the theme 'Stalker'. We split the work between us and I adapted skills of being a Producer, Actor, Director and Camera Operator. The story line was based on a student doing some research on the computer about ghosts and historical serial killers (in which I created the website myself as a prop). The student's nosey friend goes over behind her back and looks at the computer screen and thinks that the website is nonsense. After the main student leaves the classroom the friend gets up and follows her unknowns to the student. After a while of following, the 'Friend' scares the main student by creeping up behind her. During the time of this, the lights flicker on and off unexpectedly which made the situation more scarier and the 'Friend' starts believing in the ''nonsense website''. As the lights come back on the student and friend get up off the floor having a laugh and a joke. The student takes a silly photo of the 'Friend' and the lights go off again and the 'Friend' becomes missing. The student looks around confused and as she looks at her camera she notices that the serial killer from the website is dragging the 'Friend' away from behind. Student is then standing against some lockers looking at her camera again and as she looks up towards the ceiling she notices a large shadow of a hooded person holding a chainsaw. The student begins to run to escape from the place and after she trips over she gets back up and rushes through the doors. When looking behind her as she pushes through the doors, the serial killer appears behind her waving the chainsaw. And the video ends as a cliffhanger. We made our own backing music for the video using GarageBand, created a cover and included end credits and director's cuts.
