production titles

These two are the two production titles that as a group we have been working on we wanted to link our productions some how to the genre of horror by coloration and titles we have done this by having the main production image and lettering in black on a white background this is linked to the darkness of horror we also came up with the production name through the story line of our film that the antagonist has escaped from a mental asylum. we decided to use an old fashion film recorder as the main image in this production title because in the genre horror older looking props or objects are used for main creepy focuses for example annabelle was an old fashion doll this principle of old fashion objects we used for our production titles.


The other production title we created through an basic image of a house but this time reversing the colors. we decided to do this because we didn't want to to look as similar as are first one. we used both black and white text so that even though there's two different colors used the audience can still read the full name of the production title "white house films".  these are both are our first designs of productions titles and logos which could be adapted or change through the progression of our trailer. as a group through watching plenty of horror films realised that all the settings for the genre is based in a house that has little colouration as only dull colours are associated with horror. keeping this in mind we took a plain white very basic house and inturpreted text into it using the original colours to get the ffective of the whole production name.

Storyline

A psychopath who escapes from a mental institute, hides his identity as a crazy clown. Brother and sister known as Shannon and Sean, live in one happy family home and have nothing to be scared of, Until they see something which changes their lives.

certificate research for our trailer

 For our trailer as a group we had to decided on what age rating we were going to give it, we decided to give our trailer a rating of 15. our film is about a psychotic clown that has escaped and mental asylum. due our idea we looked a films that are similar to our genre and style of film. this chart is of the age ratings that saw the film IT. this is an appropriate film to use for an example due to the antagonist being similar to IT. the chart reads that 61% of 15-24 years old was the most targeted and watched age that saw the film. this result influenced us to deciding what age to make our film trailer. the other reason for us choosing this for our film trailer is because we wanted to target our film at a younger adult ages due to the social lifestyles they have. most teens at this age go out and socialise with friends and one of the main things they like to do in groups is go to the cinema. also linking back to the recently released film IT the protagonists in this film are younger teens, this is effective as it draws in the younger audience of 15+ and they can relate
to the situations of the characters in the film.

Green screen work

for our trailer we decided to have a news report scene about the story line that we have created which involves a killer clown. by creating a realistic atmosphere we  decided to use a green screen this type of tool allows us to use a news reporter background as it would create a professional effect. the green screen tout us new skills with using it for example we learnt how to edit the green screen on adobe which as a group we enjoyed learning. we also learnt how to set up a green screen from scratch. in the editing process of using the green we learnt that there are different layers involved in the process and that how its displayed on the screen we viewed. the two images on this post are two of the layers that were needed when editing that were placed on top of each other to create one main image. we also learnt that if the layers arent ordered correctly then it would mess up the order of the news report as theirs a background foreground and middleground.

New soundtrack for trailer

We found another audio non copyright sound track that we think would be effective for the equilibrium in our trailer. the music has a calm and relaxing tone which sets a settled and soothing atmosphere. this is made through a acoustic guitar. with the genital shots taken at the start of our trailer as a group we feel that this would compliment them well and entice the audience.
