Hi my name is Ananda. This is my media blog which I have used to make different posts, and where I have shown the process of each of the tasks that I have completed. Here you are able to see the work I have created (Research and Planning) leading up to my Ancillary task and my Final Product.
Our group has decided to create an Instagram so that we could post images of the development of our work and also market our film when it comes to making posters and magazine covers. We have also followed as many media related accounts we could find (mostly film productions) so that we could also gain inspiration whenever we are logged onto the account. Above you can see a picture of all of us brainstorming ideas and making a rough sketch of our storyboard before we made the real thing on StoryBoardThat.com. We will carry on posting images of whilst we are filming our trailer.

We added new images of ourselves filming our product onto our Instagram account. We also added a video so that our followers could get a glimpse of the live action. It also allows us our potential audience to connect with us more as a company.
Music is important in a trailer, it helps the audience feel emotive towards what is being portrayed on screen through the acting of the cast. The emotions we wanted to create during our trailer was the feeling of uncertainty and being on-edge. In my opinion I feel that the rhythm of the soundtrack in the trailer is the most important element. When my group had to decide which song we wanted to use and manipulate we all came to the conclusion to use Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. We came to this decision because we thought that the lyrics in the song were suited to the theme of the plot of our trailer, as Chelsea's character is convinced that she is having some deranged thoughts in our movie. We then went to look for an acoustic version of the song as we wanted the soundtrack in our trailer to be a little less upbeat. The acoustic version of Crazy which we found on youtube was edited by Tia in Garage Band on her Apple Mac where she changed the pitch and the tempo. This made the song song eerie, and it created a sombre atmosphere due to how slowly the lyrics were sung, and the guitar music.
Below is a screenshot of our soundtrack being edited in Garage Band. Our trailer includes a phone call that Chelsea has with her sister. In order for it to sound like Chelsea was on the phone to her sister we had to take the voice notes that we had recorded into FinalCutPro. Here we could cut out the parts which we had recorded that we didn't need. We also added the 'Telephone' effect so that the phone call was more realistic. I made the ending 'credits' of our trailer. This included the season that our film is going to come out in and the year. It also let's the potential audience of the film know that the film will be available to watch in both real 3D and IMAX 3D. A film produced specifically in IMAX will use film stock that is twice as big as 35mm, and a frame size four times as big. This allows the camera to capture far more detail than usual. They also use a special Digital process to blow the 35mm negative up to their IMAX stock sized without blowing up the flaws and grain so you get a larger, more impressive experience. They also use a far more powerful sound system. The fact that the production company (us) have stated that our film will be available in IMAX, can increase the amount of people who want to watch it due to the quality of IMAX films and the reputation IMAX holds. I also added the social media logos onto the credits as it makes people aware that you can catch up with all the behind the scenes. It also enables them to not only find out other information about the film, but it also allows people to interact with each other and create discussions on the film. |
