2. Initial Reaction
• My favourite way to create media so far has been through film,
coincidentally the film I have done so far achieved my highest grade so I
would probably go with this.
• I could make a film trailer which would be useful for getting across a story
line without having to be too in depth
• I can leave it up to the viewer to try and find different meanings in what I
make.
• I have a good actor I can use for a main character and have most of the
trailer around him
• Small cast with lots of wide open areas and scenic shots
• The genre could be a realistic drama following the life of someone
• I could also make a horror trailer as I have knowledge on how to do these
well
3. Initial reaction continued
• I could also make posters to go along with the trailer advertising the movie
• I would be able to interview people and ask what they want from the
trailer
• I could also interview afterwards getting peoples opinions of it
• If I had enough free time I could record a fake interview talking about the
movie I'm making as if it was something to air on a radio show
• I could also take it a different way and make multiple pieces of media
around an artist. For example a music video, a new album cover, a
magazine cover
7. Mood Board Analysis
There are lots of Greens, white/greys, blues and black in the
images I found. The images mainly have 1 or less people in and
they are all outside. All of the images I collected give a feeling of
serenity and loneliness, this is the mood I want about 70% of my
trailer to be, showing the main character in quiet open places
playing guitar and just surviving , the other 30% I want to show
him busking in the street in a busy city, trying to get gigs etc
which you can also see from my mood board.
In my final project I would like to almost recreate some of those
images but as video instead of being still. For example the clips
of the fire at night, most of the night images I found look good to
me and I will try create them in my own way.
