15 Second film trailer version

For my course work I had to create not only a film trailer but two shorter versions as well, I started with the 15 second version and have created a simple trailer for my course work that makes use of many differnet aspects of editing including;

• cutting
• chroma key
• sound manipulation
• text inputting

Film poster version 1 comparison

I created my first versions of my film poster, I had two versions with a difference in the main image. To find out which poster was the more favorite with my target market I asked 19 people which one they preferred.

I asked 19 people so there would be no possibility of a tie so I would be able to take the most popular and develop that version further to better appeal to my target market.

Version 1

Version 2

My research into which poster was more popular with my target market was version 2 with 11 votes to 8, this has given me a clear definition in to which poster I should develop further. But since the votes were close I am going to attempt to find a half way point so that more of my target audience would prefer my poster.

I will attempt to merge the two posters by slightly lowering the lighting on the main image of version 2 so that it is slightly darker.

Front cover final

After several drafts and receiving feedback from my target market I have created my final version of my front cover.

Film trailer V2

I have now created a second version of my film trailer, I will gather responses from my target audience to see what they like and dislike about the new trailer.

Front cover draft 3

I have continued further developing my front cover, whilst doing this I have been gathering opinions on how it could be improved. Some of the improvements that were suggested included;

• New title
• Better main image quality
• More images

Taking these into account I then made the 3rd version of my magazines front cover.

Front cover draft 2

I have worked on the first draft and made some improvements, through use of my knowledge of the codes and conventions of a film magazine cover I have made a more suitable cover for its purpose.

As you can see I have changed the back ground image and added more content to the cover, the cover now appears more professional and is more suitable for its purpose.

Magazine front page draft 1

I have started to design and create my magazine front cover, after conducting research into several different film magazines including; Total Film and Empire I understood the codes and conventions of a film magazine cover.

I have created this first basic draft to give me a template of what my finished version should look like, using Photoshop and gathered materials of my own creation I have made this first draft.

I can see from my first draft that I need to create content for the magazine to display on the front cover and to improve the main image as the background image and main image are not to a standard suitable for their purpose.
