Behind the Scenes of Some Horrible Movies

... horrible, as in full of horror.

Over the past week and a half, the Revenge of The Horror! The Horror! Winterim group has worked on writing, planning, and creating four horror movies. During the beginning of Winterim, the students worked in small groups to create plots for the four different horror movies. These movies contain a range of plots which include characters such as a vengeful doll and a sleepwalking brother.

After writing their movies, the students  then began to plan out the scenes of the movie, considering the angles and other visuals necessary. To help film the movies, the Revenge of The Horror, The Horror! Winterim has been joined by Russ Jaquith and Christy Kovacs, who are both professional filmmakers, and Ben Bornstein, a professional makeup artist. This year will be the third year that the three professionals will be helping the Horror Movie Winterim.

Today, the groups continued to work on their movies by filming the scenes that take place during the day. The groups will continue their filming during the next few nights in order to gather all of the necessary footage for their films. During the last few days of Winterim, the groups will be editing their movies, and putting all of their clips together into a final movie.

By the end of Winterim the group will have completed four finalized horror movies, all planned, filmed and edited within two weeks. In the past the horror movies created during Winterim have been shown at the end of Winterim or when school starts up again in April, so stay connected to find out when you can view this year's movies.
