Starting a Trailer

 

We began the lesson by watching the trailer for ‘A Quiet Place’ and then split into groups. I chose to use the school camera instead of my phone and Jess, Ruby and I thought about good places we could film the trailer in. our first shot was a zoom in of the face carved in rock outside of the tunnel because it creates a nerving start to the trailer and engages the audience. We then saw some fingerprints that had been put on the wall with red paint which could be mistaken as blood so jumped at the opportunity of using that. We then did a couple more shots in the mansion and sometimes held the camera as if it was in the characters point of view to create a dramatic effect. We then did lots with footsteps and mysterious hands appearing and the wind and crows made it look like a horror film.
