Final Draft


This is our final draft of Prank after taking into consideration our classes feedback, we had a final couple of hours editing and are really happy with the end result. We have mainly changed the colour of the chase sequences to make it more effective and more unique. By changing it to negative it shows the audience exactly when the exciting chase sequences of the trailer are and it grabs their attention straight away.

Second Draft of Prank

This is our second draft of our film trailer, after having previously shown it to our teacher we took on her advice and edited our trailer. We spent nother few hours looking at the shots and working out how to rearange them in order to make it less like a mini film. We started by mixing up the shot order, so that it was not in chronicle order. Secondly we shortened certain parts of the film ie: we cut down many of the running sequences. Finally we cut out some shots so that it doesn't give away the actual film ie: we did not show any characters getting killed or give away the psycho's face till the end shot.


FEEDBACK
We showed our trailer to our whole media class so that we could get as much feedback as possible to give us the best chance of making our film trailer the best it can be.

Whole Class –
“Good camera angles”
“Breathing creates suspense”
“Would be better with an epic voice over”
“Colour fade is really good”
“Sound effects are good but need to be louder”
“No credits to show whose in the film”
“First running shot is too soon”
“Cheesy start but then gets into it”
“Narrative is good – false scare makes you think thats all its about but then gets into it”
“Shots from are effective”

As a group we are planning to review all the comments and use them in conjuction with our own critical feedback to make a final draft of our trailer.

First Draft of Prank



This our first draft of our film trailer Prank. As a group we are really happy with the result and feel all our hard work has paid off, in all it took us about a month to put together from the start of filming to our final editing lesson. At the start of editing we were unsure wether or not we had got enough shots during our filming week however after cutting them down and putting a vairety of shots together, we feel it enables the audience to see enough of the film but leaving them wanting to know more about it.

FEEDBACK -

Media Teacher Miss Taylor

"It is good however it is more like a mini movie rather than a trailer, your task was to make a trailer however this shows way to much of the film itself, maybe you should shorten certain shots and mix them up together to make it more effective"

We have taken on board all feedback given to us by our teacher and will go away as a group and make changes to the trailer so that we can make it completely successful/effective.
