Research and Planning: Film Poster

This is another draft of my film magazine, as you can see I have changed the images and some of the font size and color of the text. I also changed the layout and moved the tag line to the top of the poster.

Research and Planning: test shot

These are some of the test shots for my poster and magazine, I'm not going to be using them however I uploaded them just to show the progress we mad. I am not going to be using these images because they are not well suited to what we are doing, for example the poses she is pulling look more annoyed than scared.

Research and Planning: Analysis of sound teaser trailer

The scene start off with the phone ringing, which straight away builds tension (Diegetic sound). Then when the girl is finished talking to the killer on the phone and she realises she isn't alone, the mood music builds (Non-diegetic sound) up to create tension, then a huge smashing sound is herd as a chair is thrown through the window. (Diegetic sound). Then the girl screams (Diegetic sound) then the scene cuts and moves on to what the rest of the film is about. A voice over can then be herd commentating more about the film (Non-diegetic) and as the scene progresses the mood music builds up (Non Diegetic) and inbetween shots a thunder bolt can be herd (Non Diegetic) to build tension and make the atmosphere seem more scary. A door shutting can also be herd later on in the scene (Diegetic sound). There are also subtitles towards the end of the scene which are read out by the voice over (both Diegetic and Non diegetic) and the mood music becomes louder and more sound is added to it (Non-diegetic) crashes and bangs also become more frequent building up the action within the trailer (Diegetic sound)

Research and Planning: Call sheet

This is our call sheet for our actors and actresses for our teaser trailer. We used a status update on facebook to broadcast the auditions so whoever views it and is interested could contact me or Jessica. We thought it would be easier to use a status update as everyone can see it whereas if we used a poster it would be less sucsessful.

We narrowed it down to five people auditioning and we decided on sophie as the main actress, and another girl to be sophies friend in one scene. We also decided on a boy to act out his parts.

Research and Planning: Rough cut

This is our rough cut of our Teaser trailer, it is not finished yet but as you can see we have filmed in two locations, indoors and at the train station. We still need to film outside college, the scene where sophie is talking to her friend about splitting up with her boyfriend. We still need to add subtitles and sound to the trailer to complete our finishing touches. We changed some aspects of our trailer from the feedback we got from our audience feedback, for example, they said there is too much of sophie walking so we cut chunks out and made it more snappy.

Research and Planning: Scan of film poster

This is the draft of my film poster, it shows him stood looking at the stalker board holding a knife, which relates well to the film. The film name obsession at the bottom with the film info (director, producer) located underneath and the slugline underneath the film name.
