First draft feedback
The main feedback we received from our first draft showed
that our film trailer followed the conventions of the crime-drama genre we
chose as everyone we asked guessed the genre correctly.
The main negative
feedback we received was that it looked a bit too much like a film opening as
it was a very fluid plot. One piece of feedback we received mentioned that we
should mix up some of the shots we have to create a few more enigma codes to
the audience so that it makes them want to see more. Although, we were told
that the shots we had were very good and we used a good variety of camera
angles.
To make it look more like a trailer, we were instructed to
add in blank screens in-between some shots to show the cast members and then
add in bits from their scenes so that the trailer conventions are made clearer
and we aren’t using the basics. Another suggestion was to add quotes that
people had said about the film and add them in to make it more intriguing.
A comment made about the voiceovers we used was that we could
mix up some of the order to make people ask questions that they won’t know the
answer to unless they watch the film. This is what we want. Although she said
the voice over was very good, she said this slight change will have more of an
impact on the trailer.
Along with the other feedback, we knew ourselves that there
is stuff we would like to re-shoot and change. For example, for one of the
scenes the dialogue isn’t too clear as the sound of the car engine is
overpowering. With regards to feedback of the sound, it was suggested that we
used different music for some parts to show the different emotions that were
being portrayed by the characters and to create different dynamics of the
trailer. One of the main reasons we wanted to re-film one of the scenes is because we can see the umbrella in the top right hand corner and it looks very unprofessional. We were using an umbrella to cover the camera as it was raining on the day of filming and we didn’t want to damage the camera and it interfered with the footage.
