Footage: Editing................

Below is the footage which I have edited so far which has developed. Before the chrsitmas break I downloaded Adobe Premier in order to be able to edit most of it during the holdiay allowing about 6 weeks for the print products to be completed. However because the Adobe Premier in school is an older version it did not allow me to open the file without all the clips which I did not have.  This has resulted in a back lock for the editing process as me and Beth were both hoping to have the trailer finished by chrsitmas. The editing has been done in order to ensure the trailer flows through the story, i also have established that I need to add more depth into the actual storyline in order for the audience to understand what is happending and therefore attract them to watch the potential film. Therefore this weekend I have decided to add a voiceover to the trailer in order to set the story at the beginning of the trailer where ther is a little pause before the dramatic music begins to play. I feel myself that the clip could do with some more editing and will be working on this during the next week and have also posted up on my blog in order to recieve feedback off an audience.

  1. Don't forget that you need to include studio idents etc.

    You clearly need some music in the opening, and you hold it for a little too long; it's very confusing...

    What is going to happen in the black sections?

    The sequence in the woods works quite well, although by 1.35 you have only really had two shots, so no great use of camerawork.

    You will need to do something about the audio - it is very messy (for example, 2.03)

    The shot of the blood at about 2.20 seems to be repeated. Is this deliberate?

    At the moment, it doesn't really look like a trailer. The editing needs to be a lot tighter (A lot) and you're right - a voice-over is needed. I'm not convinced you've got enough here - look again at the trailers you analysed. How much does this look like them? To be honest, it's all a bit of a mess at the moment. I think you need to be clear about what the narrative is.
