Done

All filming has been done with our music, magazine and poster. tomorrows lesson will be used to put the finishing touches to the poster and magazine as well as edit the music to fit with our trailer. We are extremely happy with our efforts although our university scene was not what we had intended due to complications with the location but was still done and needs to be included in the trailer.

Comments on rough edit

As Othniel put up the rough edit of our teaser trailer on youtube and facebook we have recieved positive reviews and comments. We have gone through these comments as a group and have took into consideration the feedback, and are due to make slight adjustments with our editing such as make some of the scenes shorter to give it a more action packed feel to it.

Starting our poster and magazine

As we have all our pictures of our characters and locations we have been able to start on our magazine and poster front covers. We split up into two groups with me and Michael doing the magazine and Othniel and Romaine doing the poster. We took a trip to southfields set up by sir to use their software which is photoshop. Me and Michael got a lot done as we already know what the magazine should look like but we encountered a problem as the picture we was going to use for the magazine was not of the protagonist. Luckily enough we had the props and a camera to take the photo needed for our magazine. The poster is also coming along as it is a montage of photos that we took. However we did not finish in the time provided so we will have to finish it at school, but we did pick up some tips which was very helpful in using photoshop.

Poster Ideas


We want our poster to be a montage of pictures of the characters and other images relating to our trailer in a similar format as these two posters. This way we can include all pictures of the characters and to give a busy/ chaotic feel to it which compliments our movie plot.

Rough edit for CREAM

This is just a rough edit which Othniel put up on youtube for feedback the music is not the what we will be using for our production as we are currently making the music for the trailer. We also have yet to add title screens as well as edit the non diegetic sounds and do the voice over as the protagonist. All in all we are very happy with how it has turnt out but having seen the trailer I think we need one more shot which shows redemption that I will discuss with my group that can replace the library scene.

Editing shots

I am very pleased with our efforts and have had some positve feedback from the class, especially the police scene although we wasn't able to use some of it due to the camera not being steady. We have many shots which we had to cut down because of the length we need to make the trailer, however this makes our trailer action packed and tense. We followed the shot list reasonably well but changed around a few things as we thought it would look better and for continuity. For example when Joell tell Birdie too get the money you see a next shot of Birdie in a sports car with a gym bag and in a different contrast of clothes from a hoody to a smart jacket.

Library scene

Unfortunatly the lady from the film office got back to me and said we had to pay to film in the library. This was disapointing as we had our hearts set on filming in this library. We asked if the school would contribute towards the payment but they would not saying everything had to be done on our own merit. This leaves us having to find a substitute for the library scscene as no universitys or librarys we have tried will let us film.
