Ident

The Idents we chose to use are Warner brothers and Dark castle they contrast with are cast studies as HPATDHP2 are also made by Warner brothers so i found this as a great comparison.

Magazine Front Cover

This is the final outcome of the film magazine i have created. I used one of the lead actors from the trailer to sell the magazine. I decided i wanted John to take on his own look and style of his charactor on stage and off stage. The outfit he is wearing is a punk rock style, promoting the idea of him being a very spontanious, intresting actor. The Magazine is based at the announcment of the film. I asked him to point at the camera making an appealing selling attitude towards the audiance.

Film Poster

This the Poster i constructed using fireworks for my film trailer. To begin my poster i had certain prospects to consider, the style and theme. As the film is based on the childrens story Hansel and gretle by the borthers grim i decided to use the original childrens story illustration for the main image of the poster. Others in the group created posters using images of the actors and scenes, my idea was to create a poster which would be used as a teaser trailer not revielving anything about the plot and story to the audiance. After inserting the image i used fireworks to edit the contrast to make it darker to connotate the horror/thiller genre. I edited the background using the blue tool to create a masking shaddow effect. I used the previously created title screen for the film title which was edited and created on photshop. Using textbox i was able to insert some captions such as 'Coming this halloween' and 'one upon a time, there lived two children' text which is included in the trailer to connect some synergy between the trailer and poster. I Creating a billingblock using text including all of the group and people involved in creating the trailer. Fireworks then allowed me insert some jpeg images of the companys included such as Warner Brothers and Darkcastle, i then finalised the poster with a certificate of fifteen as the film contains scenes of violence.

Sound Track

The soundtrack we chose for are media production was the famous sleep hollow soundtrack. After realising that an improvement could be made for are previous 'creepy luliby' soundtrack we redited sleepy hollow to find it as a key ingrediant to are trailers success. The idea of are trailer was for a calm yet creepy feel to the first minuate and then a more up tempo suspence styles soundtrack, which could contrast with are use of quick cut shots. The song fantastically reflects thr horror/thrilling genre of the trailer which was are aim from the start. The eerie music allows the audiance to identify the danger and threat experienced by the characters in the trailer and in my opinion a better soundtrack could not of been picked. Imovie player allowed us to edit the sound into certain sections which provides and exciting powerful feel to the trailer cuts. Most of the sound included in the trailer is non digetic, as the main attraction in terms of sound is the powerful soundtrack, however we also used the mac computers to record non digetic sounds such as door closing which we edited in during the editing process.

Locations

This is the location we chosen for the witches house. We used our own interpretation for this as in the original brothers grim story the witch's house is made of candy, however on the modern day twist, you tend not to find candy houses so we used a creepy building. The location of this is at Mil bank.

A footpath located at Milbank was used for some of the running shots showing the countryside setting of the film.

This is also filmed at Mil bank it is an old bridge which we used for some of the suspense shots.

The opening scenes of the trailer were filmed at my house to show the family lifestyle, Hansel and Gretel once had..
