Once we thought that our trailer was nearly there we asked our lecturer to watch it through and give us his thoughts. He said that we needed to add in a fade to black transition before the first text clip and another before the second text clip. He thought this would make it look more coherent and run smoother. He also thought that the ambient music we had used throughout was effective and thought we should use that same sound on a bit of the clip towards the end, as there was no music at this point.
We also managed to change the font for the title of our film in the trailer to the font we downloaded. Originally we couldn't get this to work on the iMovie software but our teacher found a way to help us out. We now have a signature font for our movie which can be used on the movie poster as well. This is a screen shot to show the font we have used in the editor of the iMovie software.
Once we made the changes our lecturer suggested we watched it through again and it seemed to run a lot smoother and we are all really pleased with it, including our teacher.
Our next step is to upload it to YouTube and Facebook and get feedback from people on; what they think could be changed, what they like about it and whether they would go and see the film or not. We can also start work on the movie poster and magazine cover to go with the trailer.
