Evaluation of final project
Updated: Jun 14, 2022
Audience
i think i have done really well and my peers say that my project good and that i've put time and effort into it.
The final production is presented in context for the intended audience and it looks like a real netflix film production i have tried to make it look as close as i can to the real thing i have presented it in context and here are some mockups to show that.
i put my poster on a bus stop board and i realized that if i was putting on the bus stop i would have to resize my poster to fit because it doesn't get the tag line on at the bottom
i think i have successfully fulfilled the required brief and my peers and teachers say the same thing.
Planning/Research
Yes i have done what i was set out to do. the a project that i agreed in my proposal and it the same as what i agreed on what i was doing for it and the planning was good and i did a lot of planning for it to make it right and did a lot of research into different films to see how i can make mine and have to make it better and make it look like a real film trailer i looked into netflix to because we was doing a netflix trailer.
Production skills
if i was to do my poster and trailer again if it was possible would change the time of day to night.
Trailer
we couldn't do a shoot at night because we are college students and only have college in the day time.i think that setting it at night would of made it seem scary. my research said that things hide in the night. i would edit better and add more effects into it and change the sounds asking people horror movies have spooky sound effects like banging and screaming and animal noises would make it scary i watch a clip on youtube about the making of the soundtrack for jurassic park they used normal animal sounds but speeded them up or down to make them sound scary and like it was a monster.
Poster
In my poster I used my research to help me with the final concept. My Mood board was used to give me ideas for my poster i used a lot of silhouette pictures in it because i knew i wanted to do it in my poster the moon board also gave me inspiration to but smoke on my poster and the blue that lights up the mask i used that blue in the poster with the smoke.
had a variety of different lighting effects.I tried out some of these in my lighting workshop and found that the idea of a silhouette was my favourite and wanted to put it into my poster because it makes it seem like the person is missing.
this was a mockup of my poster and i was trying to recreate the silhouette on photoshop i managed to do it on photoshop rather than them stood in front of a light i just used the fill tool and filled them in to get the silhouette style.
In the Photoshop workshop I learnt how to create a silhouette in the editor and how to use brushes and overlays and I liked the idea of using a few key colours in the poster below.
While the introduction of the colour gave the ghost silhouette a scarier feel.This pale colour green and the highlighting of the tag line in the same colour as the Netflix logo helps the ghost become a central figure.
Production skills
some problems that came up in production of the project was that we should of done more planning before we made the trailer and should of thought about how we are going to shoot the trailer and it was hard to find the right locations to film and we should of film it at night to make it more scary and some times it was hard booking the equipment because other people was using it or didnt hand it back we was good at working in a team and planning for the shoot we should of planned people jobs a bit more but in the end the trailer turned out really good.
Development of skills your project journey
i have developed how to edit in wevideo and how to use photoshop and the skills in it to create my poster i have leant these skills by practising the skills over and over again and i have used equipment like cameras and lighting and learnt different skills with them and practiced them and all the work is done in a profesional way so what we do is have time management and logging copyright.
i have developed my skills by practising all the time on software and leaning new skills all the time this will help for future projects because now i know the skills that i can use in the project and i have leant how to do lots of different effects in editing (smoke overlays and transistions) and in Photoshop (brushes, overlays and filters)
what would i do diffrent
i would work on the planning a bit more and make sure we know what we are doing before we shoot and make sure everyone has a jod and they stick to that role.
in my project research i thought looking at other netflix posters and films really helped me how to make mine look like a netflix trailer all the way from the text to the style of the poster/trailer. i would definaly look at more films and watch them to see how they are shot so then i could get a understanding of how to make mine look a lot like a netflix film.
