My Magazine Cover


Final Cut Of Our Trailer: Blank



Here is the final cut of our trailer. I have also added an alternative cut of our trailer on a separate post. This is because we aren't so keen on the soundtrack in this cut but prefer when Blank is on screen as we have taken out the "wobbly" effect.

Alternative Cut Of Trailer: Blank




Here is an alternative final cut of our trailer. This differs from our final cut by having the "wobbly" effect when Blank appears on screen. We prefer the soundtrack from this as it included less of the teddy bear lyrics and overall sounds more creepy and contrapuntel.

Focus Group Video Screening




Here is the video from our final focus group screening. The comments that were made afterwards can be viewed on a separate post.

Feedback From Final Screening


We asked our class what they liked after seeing our final screening of Blank and this is what they said:
Soundtrack was good x6
Jump scare at the end worked well
Jumps throughout were good x2
Camera angles- close-ups and canted angles x2
The wobble effect when blank shows up x3
Wide variety of shots
Heartbeat pulse works well x3
Inter-title font looks good x3
The music changes were great – real horror feel
Sound effects were really well done
Collision cuts were awesome
Really cool villain x2

We then asked what needs to be improved and here was the response:
More horror conventions needed x3
Didn’t like the inter-title text font
Lack of low key lighting x3
Slender in the road – didn’t really make sense
Voices are too quiet x3
Dialogue is too quick
Don’t understand plot of going to the woods – not enough narrative to explain – more inter-titles needed x 2
Would have worked better at night
The blurry effect doesn’t work so well
