Teaser trailer

Magazine Front Cover





This is our final draft of our magazine front cover, we decided to change the main image and incorporate a film strip onto the cover. This was inspired by the horror magazine Fangoria.

Film Poster

This is the final result of our film poster called 'FINGERS
CROSSED'.





Making the music

To make the music we used 'GARAGEBAND' we had to decided what type of music we wanted whether we wanted intense or soft. We had to try and fit our music with the trailer. We decided that the build up would be gradual and sudden. We used instruments such as the piano to create this.

While Shooting

While shooting footage for the trailer, I decided to take some pictures and see if they would be suitable for the front cover of the poster or magazine. I thought that I had some really good shots that we could use, so I compared the photographs from the previous photo shoot and the ones taken at the abandoned school and decided which ones were appropriate to use. We overall used picture from our last footage and our recent one as they interrelated with each other.

Location

For our location we went to an abandoned school inside of our college. We decided that this was the best place to film as it seemed as a set for a horror movie. The majority of filming was taken place outside in the playground.
