Evaluation of the Editing Process

Because we didn't have much previous experience editing, I felt it was here where we felt out toughest challenge, because although we had a clear idea of what we wanted the final product to look like, to actually edit it to look the exact way was difficult. However, I believe that we rose to this challenge and demonstrated excellent team-work skills and dedication when editing the trailer, and took in many considerations.

This includes:

• Using the correct tone and style of music to match the themes of our movie and also to dictate the pace towards the end when showing our montage of deaths
• A general increase of speed in our trailer in order to mimic the excitement slowly building up in the eyes of our audience
• Use of text on screen to create enigma, and also to move along and help narrate the story of our movie without giving too much away

Evaluation of the Filming Process

When filming the trailer we decided as a group that the best thing to do would be to alternate roles, in order for us all to get a turn at doing everything and so learn more about that particular role we was doing. For example for the void scenes me and John took turns filming, and for the exam hall scenes Morgan and John alternated filming roles. Because we had already produce a thorough plan this wasn't a challenge, and we were all able to carry out are roles effectively and in a professional manner. Me and Morgan were also in much of the trailer, and so although switching roles, we had to rely on John for most of the filming which he done to a good standard.

Planning is precisely the reason I feel the filming process wasn't that hard of a challenge for us, because we had spent a long time planning our trailer in detail and preparing for the filming process, we were properly prepared for any challenge we would face when filming and because of that we knew exactly what we were doing. This is something I learnt in the pre-lim task when me and my group felt that are footage wasn't to a good standard, mainly because we hadn't done enough planning, something that was corrected this time round.

All in all, I feel that the filming process was a very good and enjoyable one, which was made even easier by all of the planning and research we had put into it beforehand, which I hope shines through the final project.

Final Version of 'The Examined' Trailer

This is the final version of our trailer 'The Examined', after seeing and evaluatiing the audience feedback we received we decided to make some changes to our trailer in order to create a much better product that not only highlighted the genre of our movie, but also told the story of our movie well and also showcased the popular conventions of trailers. Overall, I feel as if we have done that effectively, and by this trailer have demonstrated are increased knowledge of horror movies and trailers, and on what makes a good trailer.
