This document discusses the process of editing a film trailer. It describes finding footage from YouTube and converting it to import into editing software. Clips were trimmed and rearranged to tell the story. Graphics and logos were added. Different sound effects and music were experimented with and selected to build tension and match the scenes. The effects and lighting were adjusted to make the dream sequence more unsettling without being unprofessional.

1. This here was
the ‘universal
pictures’ film
that I found on
Youtube of
high quality. I
took the URL of
this Youtube
clip and
searched for a
Youtube
converter as to
import on to
premiere
This here was

and searched

2. This was the best
Youtube convertor I
found on Google as to
was quick and easy to
use. I inserted the
Youtube URL in the box
and within seconds it
was done, I than
imported this clip onto
premiere to add on my
trailer.

3. This clip was originally
very long so I used from
00:00:03:00- 00:00:12:00
and slowed its duration so
that the audience can
catch this.
I placed this clip after the
‘green screen’ to show this
is presented by universal
pictures.

4. Here is the logo, one of our group member
made on Photoshop of ‘paranormal pictures’ . I
changed the background to a darker grey as it
was originally white to blend in with our trailer
but it didn't seem skilled enough
This was one of
the effect I was
experimenting
with when I was
adding this final
scene of the Casey
dreaming she was
running as she felt
someone was
following her.
However, when
showing it to a
teacher they felt it
was ‘not scary’ it
seems
unprofessional
therefore I
changed it.
I placed this
scene on
between of
when Casey is
sleeping and
before she
wakes up from
shock, this was
to show that
she is having a
bad dream.

5. This clip was added right at
the end over the sleeping
scene

6. Here I used a
different
soundtrack,
the peak on
the
soundtrack
shows the
building up
of danger
which
worked well
with the
scene,
therefore
placed it
below my
existing
sound.
Here after
experimenting with the
effects I decided to
added double of the
‘luma key’ to add a
dreamy effect and to
darker the background
as the light was bright.
This is the soundtrack named ‘Dead silence theme music’ the beginning of the
soundtrack was not so eerie so used the pitched sound towards the end. Also I
changed the audio by using the yellow line from slowly building up to the peak
and than slowly fading back to our soundtrack of ‘ Creepy horror song’. Having a
different soundtrack will allow the audience to acknowledge that something has
happened or is going to happen, this helps to build a strong connection.
