Editing Log - Day 4


Day 4 was our last day of editing for our teaser trailer. This day consisted of polishing up our current teaser trailer edit by making any significant final adjustments or changes. In addition, to help with this, our teacher had arranged a professional editor to come into our lesson for one day to look at our classes teaser trailers. Upon looking at our own teaser trailer, the editor had given us constructive feedback that was extremely useful as this information came first hand from a reliable source. Also, due to his experience, we trusted his opinion of our teaser trailer and made the changes he had suggested. For example, he gave us the idea to consider using black and white colour contrasting for the shots of our teaser trailer which would significantly make up for the lack of quality and visual grain. Also, within our teaser trailer, we had a few close up shots near to the end, the editor however thought that these close up shots almost de-heightened the suspense and action we had originally built upon. Therefore, we decided to the replace these close ups with more segments of action to ensure the tension of our teaser trailer reaches its climax. The editor really aided with our ability to create an effective horror trailer. Without our teacher arranging this for us, we would not be able to make accurate corrective alterations to our project. The last day of editing was conducted with the main focus of adding the final touches to our teaser trailer. This included watching it several times as a group to ensure every member is in agreement about how our trailer should look like. Day 4 had definitely been a significantly editing day for our group as we had made many beneficial changes to our trailer edit to make it look more representative of the horror genre which is an essential aspect of our overall marketing campaign.
