Pictures

 











This is a screen shot of my conversation with Natasha. She contacted me through Facebook Messenager.




Editing process





I needed to take pictures for my trailer. This is a conventional feature on a horror trailer as they show black and white old pictures to make the trailer more tense and creepy. I made the poster for the witch to hold. This picture was inspired by an old picture the only difference is that the costume isn't the same, font and broomstick. I told Natasha to wear a vintage blouse so that the picture actually  looks like it's from the the 18 hundreds.  Finally, i'm going to choose the last picture I have edited because I personally think it looks better than any other photo.

Final Edited Photo

I also created this photo on PhotoShop but I was rushing and forgot to take screenshots to show how I created this picture step by step. I forgot to include shadows so that the objects on the table look real. This picture was inspired by a picture I found on google. Everything on that table is from google images.

Test shots

 
This is a close up of my sister applying red lipstick. There will be an exact same shot in my trailer when the leading actress is being introduced whilst she's doing her make up.



This foresty looking field is actually behind my house. I wanted to get an establishing shot of the woods as this shot will also be apart of my narrative. Just the lighting would be a bit darker than seen on the picture.

Ideas

In the Ouija and the Conjuring film there were old pictures of people doing communicating with spirits through spells, boards and other ways. I feel inspired to continue that convention of a horror film trailer by adding old pictures to make my trailer more creepy and mysterious. Also part of my narrative the witch (main character) has been 'gifted' witch craft from her ancestors therefore the audience will get some clues about the witches hysterical background.

In order to this, I will need to take to take pictures with people wearing old fashion english clothes and performing their ritual to communicate with the devil or dead souls.


I'm thinking of drawing or taking similar pictures and edit them in black and white. I think there were about 7 pictures in the horror trailer of Ouija.

Advertisement




This was my first attempt at writing up an advert for college students to read. Until I got told that it was boring and the audience will loose interest by reading the first sentence, I started to change it up to make it more appealing.

This was the finished and improved advert. I made it short and snappy. Got rid of the list because I didn't want anyone to feel intimidated and loose interest. Made the font bigger and gave useful information such as my email. Also the theme of this advert is black, orange and white to link with my genre.



This is a screenshot of the email I had sent to the technician. I had to send him the advertisement, due technical difficulties I wasn't allowed to send an email to all students with an attachment as it ruins the systems.




These two emails were sent to the staffs who deal with tutor notices.
