Production: Poster Progress #4

I have made a small change to my poster but an important one, I have added the steel tongs along the bottom to show the audience who has made the film etc. All film posters have this on the bottom of them, but it is made barely visible because the audience doesn't want to see that they just want to see the film poster.

Production: Poster Progress #3

Again, I have changed my poster very drastically. I decided that the previous layout that I had wasn't working and I needed to change it. Using the A L'Interieur poster for inspiration, which is a poster that I previously did some research into, I used the same sort of layout. I think this has changed the poster a lot but it has changed it for the better. I also used a red/sepia tone on the clown as I think that it gives off the effect that he is dated, as he is, because he is meant to have died in the 60s. I am yet to take the scared picture of the main protagonist but when I do I will make her colours bright and vibrant to give a modern feel.

Production: Trailer Progress #6

We have noted that a lot of our trailer updates did not include the sound that we created, for this we apologise and we tried to make it work but we had no way around it. However you can still see the video progress.

Production: Magazine Progress #6

I have changed the magazine a lot the past session. I decided that a few things weren't working and that they needed changing. I have got rid of the gradient at the top and of the translucent white rectangle at the bottom as I just felt that they werent working. I have also changed the font of the title and changed the colour which I think makes it stand out a lot more. I think that having a red background behind the title really makes it stand out and gives it some un-conventional aspects. I have also got rid of the coverlines as I think that they were making the magazine feel too tightly packed and over-loaded and I think without them it looks much more effective.

Production: Magazine Progress #5

I have tried out a different layout for my magazine where the main image is to the right instead of centered. However I don't think that this layout is working as with the image centered it is more eye-catching and the main focus of the first thing that you look at. I also think that the coverlines are too close together and the magazine looks very tightly packed and overloaded.

Production: Magazine Progress #4

I have added all the extras onto my magazine including the taglines and the features of my magazine. I think this has really started making the magazine come together. However, I think that the gradient at the top of the magazine just isn't working and I might have to change this. I have added the dates, issue and a barcode to my magazine which are all necessary.

Production: Trailer Progress #4

Production: Trailer Accessories

I have edited some old newspaper articles on photoshop to make our trailer seem more realistic that the clown had died, we will be adding it into the scene after 'in 1964'.

Production: Trailer Progress #3

I have added the production and distribution company logos at the beginning of the trailer. We created these on photoshop and adobe illustrator and have added a glowing effect to give an eerie aura. We have also added text which is moving the story along. We have used a carnival font which relates to our trailer.

Production: Magazine Progress #3

After some audience feedback from my teacher and my classmates, I have decided to make the colours more vibrant everywhere. This has drastically changed my magazine, but I think that it makes it much better. I also used a different font for my title, and now it looks a lot more noticeable. I have also changed the fonts of the writing at the top of the page and the subheading under the carnival, however they are still the same font as the title which I think just doesn't look right and might have to change.

Production: Trailer Progress #2

We have edited our trailer so that all the shots are in the right order and with the correct time frames. This has already given our trailer such a new outlook. We had filmed the first scenes at the end of the night because they were the easiest scenes to film and we needed to film on the farm quickly because it is owned by Emma's auntie and we had to leave by a certain time.

Production: Magazine Progress #2

I have began to add the taglines and Movie name to the magazine, as my film is the key element of the magazine it needs to be in a big font so that the audience knows. I have used the same font as the title for the subheading under the Carnival, however after looking into this I have found that it is not very conventional as the title is meant to be eye-catching and on it's own and most magazines like Empire do not do this.

Production: Magazine Progress #1

This is the first progress of my Magazine 'Feature'. I have used a very drastic image of the clown, where the lighting is only catching certain parts of his face, this gives off a very dramatic feel to the magazine. I have used quite a thin font for the title, which after some feedback I am going to change as it is not eye-catching enough and the colours that I have used, although contrast nicely with the image, just aren't vibrant enough for the magazine to stand out.

Production: Trailer Progress #1 (non-edited)

This is the unedited version of our trailer "The Carnival". It has got all of the footage on it, with no editing. We filmed it on a DSLR Camera but we used a shaky 'handheld' camera effect which we have seen in many other horror films. We decided to go with this effect because we think that it makes it scarier as if you're actually there, because you're seeing it through the eyes of someone who is 'just like you'. We tried many different shots and angles to make sure that we had a variety. However I think that we need to add something more, maybe with stable camera shot and tripod, to give our trailer that extra diversity.

Production: Poster Progress #2

After having audience feedback, I have decided to change my poster quite drastically. I have got rid of the side profile of the girl as in feedback a few people have said that it does not fit as she does not look 'scared' which wasn't the original purpose of having her there but if my audience says that it doesnt look right then I need to listen and provide. I also changed the font of 'The Carnival' as some people said that it looked too 'Disney-esque', which it was as it was an Alice in Wonderland font that I downloaded. We also used it for our production company logo font so we can not use the same thing.

Production: Poster Progress #1

This is the first progress of my Movie Poster. I have used the clown and the main protagonist as the main features. They are both facing sideways as if they are looking straight at eachother which gives a eerie feel. However after some feedback, I have noted that she doesn't look scared enough and if I were to get another image where she looks scared the poster would be better.
