Last week of 2014

This is the last week of 2014, meaning that I should have the drafts at all in by Friday. I have delayed my recording twice now for annoying purposes and now it will be on Thursday the 18th of December. Once I have all the footage done I will be editing it on Adobe Premier Pro, this will obviously take more than one lesson do develop all of my footage to create my film trailer. I will be completing my poster and my website on that Friday as that will not take as much time to complete as I really only have to add my photos then maybe tweak a few things. So today I have done this post and I will create hopefully one more.

Time Management Progress

In seven day time I will have to hand in the draft version of all my ancillary tasks, so that will mean handing in my film trailer, my poster and my website. At this exact point I have not yet completed all of the tasks, I have nearly completed my poster all I need to do is add my photo which I will be taking on this Sunday. I was going to take my photos and videos yesterday, being the 11th of December, yet my actors pulled out as they were at a gig, so the next day that I am available is the Sunday, hopefully I will get everything done that needs to be so that I have a good enough draft for the deadline.

Film Sound Effects

Above this is a link to a youtube video of a collage of stereotpyical scary horror sound effects, in my opinion that is what puts fear into the eyes of the audience. I was rather frightened and creeped out just listening to this video. I found these sound effects gripping as they captured my attention and I found that they have a sinister undertone and this was the effect I am pushing forward to achieve too. I took inspiration from this short video to make sure I add this type of sound effects throughout my film trailer. About two thirds of the way through the trailer the masquerade killer will be shown, when this is on screen I want contrapuntal music playing in the background to make the audience feel uncomfortable, I was thinking like something along the lines of John Lennon's Imagine. I will first need to get permission from his representatives.

How to work Premiere Pro

As I have said in a few of my other posts I have not had a real go on Adobe Premiere Pro before and even though I have had a little go editing with peers, I believe I am at the stage where I know what are a few buttons yet once I had watch this video I know a lot more about the software and feel a lot more confident when I finally get around to edit my trailer. I have included a link below to the video I watched, which covers almost every area of the program. By watching this video I have ensured that when it comes to editing I am ready to put together my trailer to outstanding effect.
