Our production of a teaser trailer had many interesting elements that helped it fit into the teaser triler conventions aswell as insuring it hd its own unique sales points. The camera work was a key factor in creating these effects and we felt that as this can often be the most acclaimed area of a production it was very important we delivered a range of meaningful and interesting shots, angles and transitions.
As we failed in our ancillary task to include a 360 degree angle shot we wanted to include it in this production. It took many attempts to get the overall speed, height and width of the shot perfect but in the end alongside the transition e have used the shot is very impressive. We did also alter the speed of the shot later in the editing suite to produce a more flowing effect.
We also tried to ensure that all of our shots lasted no longer than five seconds as the idea ofour trailer was to create a fast flowing montage of shots that leave alot of unanswered questions about the film itself. The use of the cut and fade to black shot transitions assisted in this desired effect as the rapid change of scene produces a rapid change of emmotion.
The final shot of the trailer is possibly the most impressive. The idea was actually borrowed from the trailer of the recently released 'Shank'. The idea is to give the genre and the release date of the film away all in one shot. we believe wecreated this effect perfectly and actually managed to make look as if it was professionally done.
As far as what we would improve goes we feel that there are certain shots that could have be improved through a different use of angles. The connotations raised by some of the shots are those we intended to create and therefore it affects the purpose of the trailer and narrative. Although this is not a major problem it still leaves much out of place within the trailer and should we get the oppertunity we would certainly make ammendments.
