Progress Report 10 - Film Trailer ~~~> Jaleesa

(23/03/09 - 29/03/09)

This week has been really good, we reached the 90 second mark, and even reached the 2 minute mark by the end of the week, in time for Mr Bush to check it next week. We did some filming on Tuesday, where we filmed some shots of Meena with blood on her, and where she is trying to fight off the stalker, which helped us a lot as we needed something to go in the middle of our trailer, therefore we have achieved one of our targets which was set last week. Our trailer is practically finished, and all we need to do now is add in the titles, which will appear at the end of the trailer. We have all contributed to the editing of our trailer, and I am proud of the effort we have all made. One of the major things that is concerning us at the moment is the soundtrack, as we have to find a new one which will fit with our shots, the reason as to why is because we can't use the soundtrack of which we currently have as it is the soundtrack for another film trailer, and if we were to use it we would be marked down. However we will be going to the music block this week, to ask if we are allowed to make our own soundtrack, to ensure that it is able to blend well with our trailer, which as a result will make our trailer seem more original. We have been getting help from the media mentors, and Mr Babu who have both helped us in deciding on where we should place our shots, and which shots look good together. We have also showed it to the other groups, who have told us that they really like it, and that it's really scary, which is exactly what we wanted our audience to think when watching our trailer.

Over the course of next week, we hope to have completed our trailer, in order for us to spend more time completing our print productions.

What Went Well...

* We finished filming.

* We reached the 2 minute mark.

Even Better If...

* We find a new soundtrack, or we create one.

* We ensure that our new soundtrack blends with the movement of our shots.

Next Best Steps...

* We add the titles, and credits onto our trailer.

* We hopefully complete our trailer in time for the deadline.
