We got into groups and filmed a fake teaser trailer. The trailer was about a girl with an imaginary friend. We had a task list to incorporate as many shots as we could so that we could practice our camera work. To film we used the schools digital camera and a tripod. We also used interior and exterior settings which included the school english block, the stairs and the grounds outside; we used these since a trailer shows different settings. Me and Holly were behind the camera whilst Ellenia and Ellie acted.
We then edited this on Abobe Premier which is very basic but allowed us to make a basic teaser trailer. Since we could not listen to music on the school computers, Holly edited the rest of the film on her laptop.
When doing a 'birds eye' view shot the tripod was shown in shot which we did not realise at the time. From this I can learn to view my recordings before leaving a location so that we do not have to re-shoot and therefore save time.
In our final video Holly was able to edit the shot so that the tripod would not show up, It is clear that in my final trailer I will need much more settings and change of costumes. The sound was also unclear so I may need to record sound over the final edit so that audiences can hear it better.
From this task we were able to learn what angles worked well and what didn't.
