PLAY WITH ME SHORT FILM

Poster final

This is a draft of our poster, so far it is nearly completed however, we need to consider changing the font of the writing that is on the bottom left hand corner because the audience feedback I received told me it was not readable. Also we are still contemplating on what we should add on the poster in that empty space as it looks empty but we are not sure on what we could add. One of the audience said we should add some sort of review to clear the empty space.

audience response for film and focus group response

audience response for trailers

I received audience response for my trailer draft and my final trailer. The feedback I received were helpful because the audience told us what she liked and what we could improve on. For example for the draft trailer we had no dialogue which the girl picked up on and she said that we should add dialogue for when we start to improve it which we did as you can hear on the final trailer. Also for the second trailer the audience said we should add more onto the trailer by making the script more scarier and explain more of the storyline to encourage viewers to watch it. We have taken on her feedback and decided that we would keep the trailer the way it is as we want the trailer to not give too much information away but to keep the audience interested with what we have given. 

Make up of IVY

Rupa my filming partner done the make up for the character Ivy. She gave her a ghost like makeover and added red face paint that looks like blood to give Ivy a sinister look. We also back combed her hair to make it look crazy and make her look nothing like an innocent child.

Audience feedback on poster

These are the responses I have received for my poster and my costume and prop list. The feedbacks were very helpful as I am able to use it to improve some of my work and continue to improve it reflecting some of the audiences opinions.

draft trailer

Myself and my partner created a draft of how our trailer would sound adding dialogue, music and sound effects to make our trailer. Making a draft helped us to work with what we have allowing us to create a trailer which would appeal to our target audience. We added some of the dialogues we had in our actual film onto the trailer so that when the audience listen to our trailer they would get a glimpse of what the film would be about. The purpose of trailers are to advertise upcoming films, they are placed on TVs online, radios etc… Being advertised in these platforms above it helps to create awareness as it tells the audience when a film will be out, what it is about, who are in it and much more. In our radio trailer the audience will hear what they expect to see in the film.
