Beech Mount Second Rough Cut

This evaluation refers to Question... 3

After I got feedback from the class I re-edited my trailer making the changes that had been suggested for example:

• I altered the colour of one of the scenes so that it matched the rest of the trailer and looks more professional and effective
• Reduced the sound of the soundtrack when the characters were talking to make what was being more clear and easier to hear/understand
• Changed the positions of the title cards and put them all together at the end of the trailer

I think these changes improved my product as it looks more professional and is a lot more convincing, as well as being more suitable to the genre. I think the most effective change was to the title cards. When changing the positioning of the title cards I realised that they were in different fonts with different font sizes. I made the all the same and put them in a font (typewriter) that is conventional for the channel that my show will be on, E4, therefore  making the trailer better suited to the genre and audience.

I also recieved fresh feedback from this rough cut which included these positive features:

• Sharp editing
• Can clearly see the 'love trianlge' envolving three of the characters
• Can clearly hear/understand what is being said by the characters

And these negative features:

• Slow down the length of the title cards so the audience can read each word clearly
• Bring the soundtracks volume down
• Place clips of Jack together so that his sexuality/drug problems are easier to interpret

This evaluation refers to Question... 1

Also the title card sequence is similar to the one that is used in the "Made in Chelsea" trailer with keywords/plot terms, that describe the show and the topics that it is based on, shown after one an other at the end of the trailer. Mine differs though as I don't have a voice over that says each individual word which is used in the Made in Chelsea trailer.
