What's up guys, it's Kaile with another blog post! Right now we are currently working on a Movie trailer! If you guys remember from last year I also did a movie trailer. ( It was more like a whole movie though. ) The goal for this project is to create a fictitious ( A.K.A fake ) movie trailer that is 90-120 seconds long. The trailer should not give away the ending and make your audience want to see the real movie. ( If it existed. ) Have a dramatic voice actor who can make people realize why your movie is a "Must See". Your trailer must also include an original movie poster created by your teammates and provide your audience with the highest level of production value so they stayed glued to the screen and can't take
their eyes away! The first thing we have to do before filming our movie trailer is coming up with what it's gonna be about. I was looking at my ring and I thought hey, what if our trailer was about a test of survival to get a ring? Then we started working off that idea. I wrote the V.A script with Katy, and I edited part of the storyboard.
While working in any project, you face challenges and struggles. Same with the previous project I did, I would say meeting up is the hardest. We all participate in different after-school activities and we all have busy schedules. Also getting our setting for filming was pretty difficult. We had to find a somewhat forest-y area by Katy's house. So we had to hike down a hill while swatting away trees and spider webs. It was somewhat irritating to film because there was a million mosquitoes biting us so then we hiked back up and grabbed some mosquito repellent. Some successes that we have is everyone in our group made a movie poster. Each movie poster you create after the one that is required you get an extra credit point. Also editing is going great! Every time I did the voice over it matched perfectly with the persons lips! When Katy was saying "GO, GO, GO!" I put the audio from the video and the voice over at the same time and it matched perfectly! It also sounded like there was two Katy's.😂We have really nice shots, like the action scene where Megan and Dana are battling and also the close-up of the ring with the sunlight shining on it.
Lastly but certainly not least we have our critique! In total we got a pretty good grade, and we got nominated 2nd place for best Movie Trailer! Overall I reviewed over a lot of techniques like how to customize the text and how to use the masking tool. I learned that working with a big group is difficult, and that sometimes you have to compromise on things. I also learned that when things don't go right you just have to make other things work. I also learned that Dana has a pretty sweet dramatic voice actor voice.
