Welcome to our blog. Here, you will be able to follow the progress we have made on our A2 media coursework. We are creating a teaser trailer for a romantic comedy and this has involved a lot of planning, production and evaluation which can all be viewed here.

Audience Feedback

I have now asked people to give me feedback on which poster draft they think looks best. This will make it easier for me to decide which one to use and I know people will think it looks good.

This image was favoured.


I think this was because New York is a romantic setting for a film, and the skyline helps to show the overall setting. The blue strip of sky across the top also provides a good space for the faces of Georgia and Ben.

There is a lot going on in the background which could make the poster look hectic and hard to understand, however the opacity will make it more comfortable to be viewed and the detail will make it more interesting.

Poster


Today I have experimented with original images to find a background for the poster. I have narrowed it down to 12 images which I have saved as drafts on the poster. These can be seen here:

In preparation for creating our own magazine cover, I've specifically researched Empire magazine and the way it adapts it's covers for the film it's promoting.
Here are a few examples I've found:

I then began to create my own cover using inDesign.

I have begun to create a first draft of a poster. At the moment, I only have an image from google which I used so it is easier to see how the poster will turn out, however I will change this to an original image at a later date. We will also need to take a photo of the two main characters, probably facing back to back, to put on the poster.

We edited more clips today and are close to having a rough draft of our trailer finished.
