Editing Stage

Last week Saba and I finished our editing and have now log and captured all our footage and we are now on the stage of putting in the narrative for our trailer meaning the subtitles in order for our audience to understand our trailer as well as help the audience raise questions about our trailer. Saba and I found that editing was a challenge as we faced many problems such as our footage being unable to be captured on Final Cut Pro and also we had problems with Final Cut Pro actually opening. However, after this was resolved we found editing useful and now we have started to make the narrative on Motion so that we can finally have a first draft finished so we can then see what we need to polish and work on to make our trailer better.

Feedback For 1st Draft of Poster

Looking back at my first draft for my poster I have now recieved feedback from my teacher and class mates who have said that I have to add an image or images so that the poster looks complete and also it helps convey the message of my film and also by adding pictures it shows the audience who are the type of characters that will appear in my film. I have also taken on board that the stars for the reviews need to be smaller and the colours of them are similar to the colours of the actual poster therefore it means I am maintaining the colour scheme of my film's brand image. Therefore, by me listening to feedback it means I can make my poster better and also it can help me see what I am missing and so this can then help me get the best out of my poster.

Editing & Poster Planning

This week Saba and I decided to work on editing our trailer as we know that this will take the longest for us to do. However, we weren't able to this as a result of the required equipment that we needed did not work on the computers that we were working on. Therefore, we then decided to start work on our posters, as we are both doing separate posters for our film we had to discuss what elements of the poster we are going to keep the same. We then thought that we want the fonts and the theme of our poster to have the colours red and black in it as this can highlight the theme of horror as well as the thriller aspect of our movie trailer. After deliberation Saba and I decided that we are going with the name Eye for an Eye and the slogan "His deadly past becomes her cruel reality". This was becuase both these titles will capture the audiences attention as well as making the audience raise questions which is what we what them to do when they watch and see our movie trailer and movie poster.

Additional Filming Part III

By last Friday, Saba and I had finished the main part of our filming and last Friday the only thing we had to do was film the clock which will represent the passing of time. On Friday, we then filmed this scene and this was the last part of filming we had to do for our trailer, we then rewinded the tape back to log all the times of things that happened so it will make it easier for us to edit as we will know the times of each scene so it will be easier to edit and put together. This then shows that we are on track and we are sticking to our project plan therefore showing we are making good progress and also shows Saba and I work well together as a team.
