Movie Trailer Progress

To start off with our Horror trailer I watched all of the clips through to decide which clips were usable, which parts of some of the clips were usable and what order I would put the clips in. I then put all of the usable clips into movie maker, cut them down and put them into an order. This has formed the basis for our movie trailer to which we could then build on, adding sound and visual effects. At this point the trailer is fairly bare but it gives us a rough idea as to what our final outcome will be like and it also gives us the chance to see which clips could have been improved if we had the chance to film them again.

So far I would say that filming went fairly well, there were some clips which we had to use which I would have liked to re-shoot, but because of time and the fact that we used an iPhone to film all of the clips I think that it looks fairly good. When you think about the final piece without actually going out and filming it I think the quality of the clips was something I was expecting to be better, but the resources we had to use worked okay, and I'm happy with the way it's coming along.

Aside from a few clips which maybe aren't as good as they could have been I think the trailer is coming along nicely. I now need to finalise the whole process, adding music and some visual effects to make the trailer look and feel like an actual movie trailer. At this point I'm not 100% sure with the music that we are going to use, but I'm sure like the other things we are working on with the project it will be something that will come together when Tom and myself sit down and decide on things like this.
