Print Screens For Our Trailer

Print screens from loisdouglas01

Here are all the shots we have taken for our trailer. We highlighted the shots that we wanted to use in our trailer so that we could import them a lot more easily. As you can see, most of the shots appear the same in which we wanted in case we wanted to action match a shot or use a similar shot which might have not worked before. The first shots didn't work as some of them were out of focus or badly placed on the tripod. As some of the typing on my print screens are quite small, here are some of the quotes I stated 'I felt that this clip wouldn't work as the character had her back towards the audience and we wanted the audience to see the chain which is symbolic as it  is the main symbol in our trailer'. & 'You can see the characters shoes in these shots which doesn’t look very professional as she is supposed to be a dead person. The best image would be if she looked as if she’s just come back from the dead with no shoes on'. 

Timeline Of Our Trailer

As you can see from above, here is the timeline of our trailer in which our narrative will follow. As we have a close deadline, we decided to import all of the clips we intend to use in the final trailer. We will show our target audience this video so that they can give us feedback. We will therefore use their feedback and insert it into our trailer so that it looks more successful. At the moment, I believe that our rough cut of our trailer looks decent but could look a lot more effective. I believe that when we begin to insert more horror genre iconography, it will look more effective and meet the typical horror genre conventions. I also believe that the lighting in the trailer needs to be different which should be quite dark and eerie which will hopefully meet the horror genre aspects. There needs to be faster scenes which will build up tension and then we should have a cliffhanger which leaves audiences wanting more as they obviously suspect bad things to happen to the victim. If we make all of these changes, our trailer could be successful.

Updated Shot/Prop List

As you can see from this post, this is the updated shooting schedule in which my group and I will undergo when filming next. We have set out this schedule in order to be able to tell when group members are free to shoot for the trailer. Luckily we have a lot of time together to shoot so that our trailer will be in the editing process soon. As we have planned out this schedule, we intend to stick to it so that we can get our filming process finished. We will then move onto editing our trailer which will be the process which will take the longest so we have to make sure that our filming is done up to a high and proficient level.

Costume/Makeup For Our Production

As you can see from the video above, here is a tutorial of Dawn's make up for our production. As we wanted her character too look really creepy and sinister, she brought in red paint and fake scars to make it look like she is coming back from the dead. This is the costume and props she'll be wearing in our production to make it look effective.
