Final Trailer

Our draft trailer was uploaded on the 29th of February. With our final trailer uploaded on the 27th of March. Both the 1st and final drafts of our trailer were posted on to YouTube and shared on the social networking sites Facebook and Twitter.

 Our draft trailer undertook a lot of feedback which we addressed. The most obvious change to the final trailer we made was changing the ending to make the girl have more of an identity to engage the audience. The music was also changed to make categorizing the genre more easily and also making the audience a bit more uncomfortable when watching.
 We decided to use a time lapse to show the fragmentation of the scene, and can give insight into the mindset of the character who suffers from a mental illness. The effect of the time lapse can emphasise the fact that the character has schizophrenia, and may lead the audience to empathise with the character.  It can also bring confusion to the audience due to the disjointedness of the clips.
This is also shown by the quick zoom in on the writing on the wall, the camera work is hand held.  The time lapse also indicates that it is over a long period of time, showing everything that is written on the wall.  A few seconds focusing on a matchstick being lit illustrates the danger element within the film and a close- up concentrating on the flame is eye catching to the audience, it stands out and would make them question what is going to happen. Shortly after a 1 second flash on a close- up of the girl's eye is shown; looking up then down to give a dark element to the film.  A mid- shot of the girl standing looking directly at the camera is edited to be a black and white shot and very dark lighting to give mystery and make the audience think about what they cannot see and raise questions on the location.
