Treatment Presintation

Myself Jamal, Henry and Ben constructed a powerpoint presentation in order to visually get across our point of our idea. We presented the powerpoint to the rest of the class and asked for feedback regarding our idea.

Nickleback Rockstar (Lip Sync Parody)

This was a Parody of Nickleback's famous song "Rockstar" we wanted to take the same concept used for the original music video and twist it and recreate the lip syncing with people from within Shiplake College.

Final Trailer 'Captive'

Audience Feedback

We wanted to get the opinions of the pupils in everett house, we chose people from a vast age range  who would represent our potential audience. We filmed their reaction to the film opening in order to see if they were gripped, excited and most importantly if they enjoyed it and wanted to see more. We did this in order to understand how the audience may react when watching our final cut. To conclude the feedback we received was really positive and the reactions in the peoples faces were full of suspense which is good to see as it reflects our genre. When asked what was good about the opening scene, different people picked up on different things which suggests our film is consistent and not lacking in areas.

Title Credits Analysis

Title credits are an essential part of an opening scene as it is a way of slowly introducing the characters through video as well as by text. We decided to opt for a digital type font which reflects the genre of our film very well. In the video above I explain how the title credits have effected or opening scene and what impact they have on the audiences perception of the opening scene. I also explain why we decided to use animation and vfx in our title credits and how this has further added the the spy / action feel of the opening scene.

Storyboard

Planning is a very important part in the film industry. Creating a storyboard allowed our group to really visualise each individual shot in order to understand what the camera will see and construct a further visual representation of the mies-en-scene. We have created a story board to help give a representation of what we want to achieve in terms of the out come. Of course this is a rough draft and won't have anywhere near as much detail as the final outcome. 
An advantage of creating a storyboard is that it includes being able to adapt on your shots to make them better as if makes it more clear to the individual what components of the shot may need to be improved or changed (this may include the camera being higher up, the character having a different prop or in a different position). 
I believe designing a story board is a good thing to do before shooting a trailer or a sequence in general because it gives us a rough interpretation of what we intent the outcome to come out like.
