Due to the fact that I have been editing for most of my lessons, I haven't been blogging much, so I though I would write a post on my progress so far. At the moment I have got the intro sorted, with added cuts to spark effect and a lot of fades to black, which looks really effective with the rest of the footage in my intro.
I got both positive and negative feedback on my intro, that I have learnt alot form. One of the negative comments, which I fully agree with was that the music I chose didn't really fit in with the genre of film I was making. The song I chose wasn't really frightening, it was more upbeat, which cut the tension out from the footage I had so far. I listened to the person who gave me that piece of feedback and now have decided to leave the sound and music until I have completed the trailer.
The positive feedback I got from the intro, was about the fast pace cuts I used, they said that it really creates a intense atmosphere and that it allows the audience to really feel for the girl talking into the camera.
I am happy with what I have so far, and I will definitely be tackling the harder task of choosing the sound and music a bit later on when I get most of my editing done. I am now going to be continuing to edit my trailer, trying to stick to as many conventions as I can, making my trailer look successful and professional.
