Our Final Opening

Teaser Trailer For Our Thriller Opening

After researching different horror trailers we thought it would be a good idea to market our own opening. By doing so we used iMovie and selected interesting short clips from our original opening and put them together to make a short teaser trailer.

Evaluation 6 - What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

During the process of making our opening to a thriller we used a wide range of technology.

Blogger:

We used Blogger as it was a good site for us to use as a blog. The whole reason for this is because it allowed us to post pictures and videos as well as wire ups of what we have been doing during the time of filming. By using blogger from the start it has allowed us to see how much has changed from the ideas that we first put together. We were able to use blogger at school and at home, we could also use it on iPhones and Android phones because there is an app that allows us to post from where ever we want.

Social Network Sites:

We used sites such as twitter and Instagram to allow the people that follow them accounts to see pictures and videos of what our video is looking like and then at the end to watch the full clip. The two sites were away for us to promote our thriller as it is free advertisement, this also gets people interested in watching our film.

YouTube and Vine:

We used these two apps and websites because they are easy websites to upload videos on to. This helped us because Vine is 6 second videos and we could see if people liked bits of our film before we actually put it in to the final cut. We used YouTube to upload takes that we didn’t need in our film, as we thought this was a good way to get clips to the target audience.

Microsoft Publisher and PowerPoint:

We used Microsoft Publisher and PowerPoint a lot while making our movie, as they are easy to use and while we had to make a poster we thought Publisher was the easiest ne to use. We also used these two because it was a good way for us to get our film out to the target audience.

Apple iPhone and Sony Camera:

We used Apple iPhone to film part of our film as we thought it would be good idea to use different types of cameras to see what quality camera would suit our thriller better. In the end we used the Sony handheld camera as the quality of the camera made the thriller look better.

Pinnacle:

We used pinnacle to edit and put the clips that we wanted to use together to create a rough copies. Once feedback group watched the video we added more stuff and changed some stuff for the final cut of our video, this was easy on pinnacle as we created our own folder to put our clips in.
