                  This video includes the voice over of our film. We talk about all the aspects of our film and we start of by talking about where the film was set and why we filmed there. We used the car park so we were able to use cars within the trailer to make it look professional and also create that real media feel. It was convenient as it was close to school and also was close to stores where we were able to buy some props for our film. Next in the video we talk about the props that we decided to buy and use. We decided to buy the gun as we knew it would make the antagonist which was the rich businessman look powerful and someone who is dangerous which is what we wanted our antagonist to look like as it was the same in similar trailers we watched that were the same genre to our film. We finally talk about the location of the trailer at the end which is a dark gloomy room. We used this location ...

                                                  In This video you will see some annotations as the trailer progresses. These annotations are useful as they just let you know the type of shot types that we used and why we used them. for example they created different types of atmospheres which we felt would be good for a film trailer. It also talks about the technical elements that we used within our production and how they make the trailer look event more like a real media product. So enjoy watching this short video and I hope you can see more deeply into our production.

As you can see from the video above this is a video of all what happened behind the scenes when we were filming our abduction scene. This scene was one of the most important within our trailer as it was a key part to the film. It showed the audience what the film was going to be based around. As the was such an important scene we felt like it would be good to show what was going on behind the scenes. As you can see from the video it shows us coming up with how the scene is going to come together and shows us talking about what shots we were going to use. It also shows some of the filming that was taking place, this is so the audience could see the hard work we were putting in. The behind the scenes video was filmed by Leon who was also involved in the film.

Above is a section of my work where I talked about the differences of both my projects in AS and A2. It consists of all types of my work.

Above is a picture of what our magazine cover will look like. We made sure that we done a lot of research on other magazine covers so we were able to find out where to place certain things and how we would do this to make it look effective. Firstly we started with placing the main picture right in the middle. We felt like this was a good start as it would be the first thing our audience would see and this would attract people in. The title of our film is then slightly above the picture. It is in bold white writing as you can see and against the dark background we felt like this would make it really stand out. The title of the magazine is right at the top of the front cover just to let the audiences know what they are reading. There are various different texts around the front cover that are trying to promote our film. These texts would be something that customers would read so we need to make sure that they really sell our film. Finally above the bar code you can see the price and ...

Race Against Time Poster As you can see above this is our poster that we created for our film. I was the person who was in charge with creating this poster and I felt overall I did an okay job. When it came to starting the poster I didn't really know how to start so I used some example from around our media classroom to help me come up with the start of my poster. Firstly I added in our original picture of Callum and the two thugs standing behind him. This was going to be our main picture on our poster so it was a great starting point. I then added the names of each cast member at the top of the screen this is because I had seen a similar design in another film poster and the fact that it is in bold white writing against a black background makes it stand out significantly. At the top of the poster I included an original image of the gun prop that we used within our film and then the shattering of some glass. I included this as I felt like it would let the audience know about ...

                                   Overall from all the feedback that received from our peers about our film it was very good. They helped us a lot with finding out what parts of our trailer could be improved on yet also informed us on the parts of our trailer where we did really well. They were very impressed when it came to the technical skills used when creating our titles. This is because we used fade to black on the titles to create a gloomy feel and it also made the production look like a real media product. Our peers were also very impressed with the use of the gun at the end to create an enigma code. It created a large amount of tension as a gun shot went off and then the screen went black this is because the audience did not know what happened. However it was good for us because it meant that the au...
