While we were looking for different sound effects that could be used in our trailer we found a site that has a large quantity of uploaded sounds that are copyright free and can be downloaded for general use. The site's address is http://www.freesound.org .

ancillary tasks first draft
This is my first draft of my film magazine front cover. I will be developing this magazine using conventions of existing magazines.
This is the first draft of my film poster. As of now it only contains a basic amount of text. I will be adding more text to make it seem more like a real film poster.

joint film poster analysis
While we were working on our film magazine covers we come across a few of the conventions of a cover. The majority of the covers main posters was the main character of the film in their main article, this presented problems with our magazines looking similar. Also the name of the magazine was usually partialy coverd by the main picture, this presented a problem that the esablished magazines were recognizable because we already no the name where as our magazines are uknown, so the title on our covers arnt readable.

latest editing session
There isnt much left to do in the trailer. Weve finaly found a song that fits we are currently emailing the company that owns the rights to the song, and we have now decided that we need a voice over but our main obsticle with that is avoiding sounding cheesy.

Film Poster evolution
I started my film poster with a vague idea of what i would do, that has now evolved into something better than i set out to do but there in still more i can do.
This is the basic picture that had been darkend and faded in wards
All ive done here is added a title.
To make the title fit into the poster i added smoke from the candle leading into the title. The text at the bottom are the tag lines of the film.
Here i made the colour of the title more bold because it wasnt clear it was the title, and brightend the origional picture due to when printed or displayed on a poor computer screen it apeard to dark. The main picture was moved up, more into the centre of the poster, and added the text coming soon.
The title colour i changed because it didnt fit well with the poster, i moved the main image again and the main tag line more central. Aswell as un-underlining the coming soon i added the film information at the bottom of the poster, and lightend the main image.

Film poster research
I found this website i found while looking for film poster conventions, im planning to use this to help create my film poster. Though this was written to help analyse a film poster, i will use it to analyse my poster as i create it.

Two Shots done at home
I decided due to lack of locations to film two extra shots at home. One using a mirror and the other using stairs.
The mirror i chose fit perfectly into the the style of our film but presented the difficulty of filming the shot without filming the cameras reflection. I had difficulty with the lighting but after a while i managed to position some torches to provide the correct lighting. My origional shot showed the cabinet empty but that meant there was no reson to open the cabinet, so after a few takes i place a severd arm prop coverd in blood, it worked well, the only propblem then was getting my "actor" to do what i say.
The stairs shot was simple enough,it turned out well, so i took varing shots at differing speeds and angles.
