Final film trailer

Film Magazine

Film Poster

This is our final film poster. We have created this using Photoshop. 

- the image isn't the full page but is in a box filling most of the page to frame the image so that it is clear.

-  to improve it we could go around the image to make sure there wasn't any line left around the image we cut out

- added a white wall to background so she looks like she's in the corner of a room. we have added words to this way to give away parts of storyline but making it look like they have been engraved. 

-this didn't work too well as they were meant to be discreet  

ideas for magazine and poster

This is one of our ideas for our film poster. We have used the idea of having both sides of a brick wall. On one side is the girl being bullied in a dark room looking at the messgaes on her phone from her bullies. On the other side of the wall is the bullies. They are outside laughing together with their phones in their hands. This would work well as the audience would be able to get an idea of who the characters are in the film. However this could give away part of the storyline because we would be showing the bullies to the audience straight away instead of letting them find out through the trailer or the film.

tagline ideas

For our film poster we need to include a tagline. The tagline is meant to have a related meaning to the films storyline. As a group we have come up with some ideas for the tag line and asked our audience for feedback. These are our ideas:

A secret that should have never been told
Trust is overrated
No one will ever know... or will they
A secret will be revealed
When your deepest secret is discovered
Beware of who your friends are


After getting audience feedback on our tagline ideas we have decided to use the tag line 'A secret that should have never been told'.

Feedback

Once I had finished editing my trailer I uploaded it to social networking sites such as Youtube and Facebook to get feedback. This is one of my comments from Facebook:

 This feedback will help us to evaluate our trailer. It shows that our storyline is clear and that our audience would be interested in watching this film.


This is a comment from the trailer on Youtube. From this feedback I will be able to make the changes to the trailer to make sure that the music doesn't have an instant cut between them.

I have also asked other media students for feedback on our trailer. This feedback tells us that that the music and titles fit in with the storyline and that the clips we have shown are in the right order.

Making changes after feedback

After getting feedback on my film trailer I have made the changes that were needed. I had made a spelling mistake on the word 'starring' and have changed it to the right spelling.

I had a suggestion to adjust the music so that there wasnt a sudden cut in between it. I have taken this feedback and adjusted the music to close the gap between the two.
