I made an audio file of Laura and Eden talking about my magazine cover. They closely evaluated my cover for me and I have learned that I should have made it a lot less busy and used less fonts. Here is the youtube clip of the feedback:

Final Trailer

I have added in the credits at the end of the trailer after the ‘in cinemas’ title, and I have included two of the main characters’ names. I have all my final footage and I have ‘zoomed’ in on a few of the shots of Chris and Laura, and a shot of Lauren and Chloe because there was too much going on in the background and it looks like you’re expecting to see someone walk in or something funny happen behind them. Although it makes the shot look a little bit more blurry than the rest, it looks a lot more tidy and neat. I have all the traditional romcom conventions in my trailer and I decided not to add a voice over because I attempted but it didn’t sound good because it was too monotone and my soundtrack is upbeat and lively, and it sounded to drain-like.

I added a film rating at the bottom and a 2oth Century Fox logo to make it look authentic. I also added in a rating of The Sun with four stars. I think this was the most I could do make it look more of a film poster because it looked a little like a dvd case. I’m content with the outcome of this although I could be happier. I think it represents the genre quite well but it looks like it’s more for adults than teenagers which I’m not too keen on. It reminds me of ‘The Holiday’ when I look at it due to the colour scheme and the way they’re split up into sections. I wish I could have made Chris a lot bigger because you almost have to look for him at a first glance. He seems to far away and because the girls are a lot bigger sized he doesn’t seem in control or doesn’t have any authority, when his character is the main character and he has the most authority in the storyline. I like how the girls look like they’re looking at each other and then Chris is in the middle- this makes it clear that they’re sort of fighting over him but doesn’t reveal anything major. Chris’ facial expression and body language shows he’s a ‘ladies man’ and a player which was the effect I was going for. I matched the background colour with the lighting in the photos because otherwise it wouldn’t have really gone well and I like the light because it makes it look like a light hearted, romantic comedy film.
