Film trailer - Edditing

This is the editing that I have used thus far and I have planned on a few others.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transitions -

  • For most of my transitions I have used 'Fade to black' as I think that it is the most suitable transitions for my trailer. 
  • Some other transition effects that I have considered is the 'Cross dissolve' and 'Cross blur' as I think those can fit correctly in my trailer because the way that they are transitioned its not flashy therefor it does not take away tension.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Video effects:

  • I have used 'Day into night' as a video effect to make one of my clips look darker, I have used this effect because it made the clip darker which suits the horror theme
  • I have used 'Flipped' on one of my clips because it seemed better when it was flipped, it showed better detail of the environment.

Film trailer - Music / Sound effects

Music / Sound effects

The music that I have chosen for my trailer is from a website that is not copy righted so it was fine to use the music that I have chosen on that website. I think that the music I have chosen fits my trailer correctly.

List of the current songs so far:
  • Giant Wyrm - Giant Wyrm Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)

--------------------------------------------

List of sounds effect that I will use:
  • Thunder sounds
  • Walking on leafs
  • Footsteps
  • Wind sounds
  • Rain sounds
  • Screaming
--------------------------------------------

Changes to the Music/Sound effects:
  • Instead of using Giant Wyrm that I have listed to use will probably change as I am changing up my stories pacing to be faster so I will have to use music that will suit a fast paced trailer



Film trailer - Filming (1)

I will still require more shots with the camera and I am planning to get a camera off my teacher and go shoot on a friday as I have consecutive frees when I can do filming to finish off my trailer.

Film trailer - Locations

Locations

For my location I have chosen Tower grounds as it had an area with a lot of trees around which is what I needed in my film trailer. Some other locations I have in mind is the Cemetery as I think that it will be fitting in my film trailer, also some other buildings that I have considered to film are a Church.

Adjustments to locations:

Film trailer - Storyboard

For my storyboard I have drafted it from IMovie because it allows you to put in each scene and lets you decide how long they are and shows how long it is overall so when I finish my filming I can swap it in place with each of the frames and it also allows me to preplan the music and text / transitions that I am going to use in the trailer.
