for G321 next year its going to be challenging as there are new techniques i will learn to make the trailer unique, i will learn different techniques by searching on Youtube on how to do particular techniques this will make the end product of my trailer better. As well another thing to make are trailer better would be to use a professional camera instead of the iphone camera which made are movie a quality was low. one of my targets would be to show more skill in the camera angles we used such as used my low angle shots to make the character look bigger and scarier as well we should of used costumes  to conform to the the horror, we used are normal outfits this made the film less scary as the costumes what we wore wasn't that scary. as well the cut to the new scenes will be cleaner and cleaner

From our preliminary task we learnt many things which enabled as to improve and make a good opening for our film. One thing being match on action, we experimented with this and got use to how it works, this meant we could use it effectively in our final project.








Another thing we learnt from our preliminary task was how to use shot reverse shot, this is commonly used when two characters are having a conversation. Our preliminary task allowed us to get used to this and meant we could put it to good use in our opening.





Our preliminary task did teach us some valuable lessons about working together in order to create a finished production and we learnt some valuable technical skills.  Some of the strengths of the piece were the cuts we made between shots in order to establish pace and this is something you can see in some places in our final production.  One place were our cutting of shots is effective is the place where there is a shot of Robbie holding the gun and then there is a quick cut to Tom when he notices and looks scared.

One of the things that made our preliminary task less dynamic was the framing of some of our shots.  Some shots were a little rushed and we didn't think them through very well, like the shot where Robbie is walking from one room to another, it goes on for a bit too long and is quite dull.  This is something we thought about a little more when it came to filming our final production and there are some good shots which show character and establish location at the same time, like the shot where all the characters are in a group which outlines all characters involved and at the same time lets the audience have a view of the location. Another more dynamic show was the low angle medium shot of Robbie before he goes to strangle his victim, the low shot allows him to look intimidating and give a different perspective for the audience.

To make our project, the main part of it was using a computer and a editing package called adobe premiere 10. It allowed us to use adobe premier elements 10 to edit and make our opening. Within adobe elements  to make our opening more professional we focused on production credits and used additive flash to make them most effective. Also we edited our initial clips that needed shortening and put them all in the right order. Adobe elements also allowed us the insert sound effects for example the gun sounds when the shot is fired in our film as well as music over the top which helped to conform to the horror movie. On the computer we also used blogger and our research to try and get our task done to the best of our ability and to update our progress.

At the start of our clip, it shows all the characters in our film and the type of costumes that are used which relate to the teenage audience. These are the stereotypical clothes like hoodies, trainers and jeans.This conforms to the horror genre and the expected costume and character roles.

This medium shot is effective because it shows the main characters as well it gives the chance for the audience to relate and see the characters  in the narrative and shows the setting of the opening. The setting is in a forest and it is quite dark and snowy. this would create an atmosphere for the audience because they would know that the characters are vulnerable in the woods. Furthermore this is a recognizable setting that the audience would relate to and is a conventional setting featured i n horror films.

This image is a long shot which shows the the remote setting and would create further tension fort the audience as they would see that the forest is empty and this could hint that something bad is going to happen.

This screenshot shows one of the characters searching through a bag, this frantic search creates tension and you can feel the characters frustration. This is important as it leads to why the main bit in the clip happens.

This shot is an over the shoulder shot. This is effective as it means the audience can feel as if they are in he characters hoes and see whats happening from their point of view. This is a key part as it is when one of the characters actually gets shot.

This is a close up shot of tom, the character that gets shot. It shows his emotion and pain he is feeling which means the audience can relate to the character and and become emotionally connected.

This is low angle medium shot of the villain of the film. the low angle makes the character looks big and scary. It also makes it look like the character is intimidating and imposing which makes the film more effective.

This screenshot is one of our production credits. we focused on this to make our film look more professional as it is a main part of the opening. we put an additive dissolve on it as it makes it more effective and appealing to the audience.

For our title of our film we used big white bold writing on a black background. This is very common in the horror genre in this day and age as it is very effective and and gives emphasis on the intriguing name of the film. By having the title at the end of our opening it makes the name more effective as it leaves the audience with somethin
