Film Trailer: Editing Progress

Today and Tuesday Manny has been off, therefore i tried to do some editing to the trailer. I started to add in the new footage that Manny had filmed in the previous week and tried to edit that, but i was confused by some of the shots and decided that i would have to discuss this with Manny when she gets back, Because of this i just placed some of the titles into the trailer and added the transitions such as cross fades. It is not very likely that we will be  posting a finished rough cut up tomorrow, but we will try to post what we have done so far on the blog. We encountered a few problems when we were editing as some of the shots were a different file type and therefore they had to be converted, and Manny noticed when the conversion was done that some of the editing that she had done had disappeared and therefore she was going to try and re do it. This would ineviatably take time. We would rather take a long time and get it right than rush it and make mistakes. This why the process is going to take longer than it did in the foundation portfolio because we are editing it more thourougly.

Also in the lesson today i started to work on the poster that we have to produce. I used photoshop to do this. This is the progress i have made:

I will be continuing to edit this. I will also be trying to make more of the titles that will appear in the trailer, i am in the process of planning what each title is going to say, so that the viewer will be anticipating what is going to happen in the film. So far i have made the titles for the character- Josh Sangha and "he can't escape" but i am thinking this might be a bit to cliche and may end up changing it.
