The group submitted a first draft horror trailer to their teacher for feedback and also gathered responses from their audience to improve their trailer technically and increase the chances of a successful final production. They researched other horror trailers to see how to incorporate the feedback into their second draft. On their filming date, they had a checklist of planned shots but also filmed additional unplanned shots on location to capture the storyline and engage audiences.

1. Our group submitted our first draft horror trailer onto our blog & requested feedback from our teacher. This led to us
retrieving helpful information on how to improve our trailer technically & alongside gathering more feedback from
our audience to widen our chances of making an overall successful production.
Once w e had gathered this information from both our teacher’s feedback & our target audience it meant that we
research more into previous horror trailers & to see how we could incorporate the feedback within our second draft of
our trailer by recognising it within other horror trailers. When we had discussed & planned the shots we were going to
add in we developed a check list which we were going to take with us when arriving at our original location on the
29th October. This meant that we were clear on what shots we were going to take & to somewhat act spontaneously
with filming more unplanned shots when in the location & in the mind set of our storyline/trailer.
The shots that we filmed were focused on creating more action for our trailer to grip the audience and engage them
in & too then be able to make a montage of action at the end of our trailer (with smaller shots) to match the
conventions of other horror trailers.
