What was our task?Our task was to recreate 30-40 seconds of part of a horror trailer for a film. We recreated the Blair Witch Project into our own trailer. We did this by: - We added the text shown in the original trailer stating that the three

film making students disappeared in the woods and a year later their footage was found

- We found a place outside which had loads of leaves and filmed the scene by shaking the camera

- For the second part of the trailer we used a book, an old camera and a large sheet of paper and edited the footage to add dark lighting

- We recreated the acting from the female in the original trailer by finding a dark room and shining a light onto her face to create an dark atmosphere

Evaluation To improve we need to:- Change the sound of Sevcan’s news report by slowing it down to make it

easier to understand

- Extend the shot of Sevgi’s scene to make it longer and add more heavy breathing

- We also need to slow down the shot of the father as it is unclear what we is said

Feedback From the feedback we were given we need to improve on the voice overs. People thought it was unclear and difficult to understand and we also needed a mans voice as it is a mans voice for the voice over of the original trailer.

We could improve the editing by making it faster and add non- diegetic sounds such as screams to follow the codes and conventions of a horror film.

We gained some positive feedback as generally people thought it looked very similar to the original trailer. For example, the dark lighting of each shot and the locations were similar. The original trailer was filmed in the wood and we replicated this. People thought the shot and the editing was very well put together and the trailer overall created suspense.
