We finally have found a name for our film! It is called 'Tracing Steps'
to give the idea of copying and stalking.
This is our most recent upload and edit of our film.
As you can see the sound is very obvious. It still needs to be edited
in a lot of places but we did choose the music very carefully. The
main track 'Uninvited' works extremely well with the theme of our
movie. We made the music our own by combining two tracks and fitting it in with
the particular clips. The opening scene we feel works well, with the muttering of
the class and Charlotte peering in, showing her vulnerability and nerves
as it is her first day. The montage of the music coming in slowly and the door being
opened near the camera flows well. The next scene where Charlotte is sitting
down near Summer and a voice over is heard, the music fades in order for the
audience to hear it.
The shots we feel work very well are the ones where Charlotte is in the garden and Summer is oblivious to this.
The ending of this clip is also something we are proud of. For example after Charlotte screams the slow music comes in. This is very conventional of a trailer. We still need however to create our fast paste montage to create suspense and tension as this is used in most trailers. This will be in the middle of the trailer before cueing the sad music. The transition between Charlotte mimicking Summer in the mirror and the title 'Tracing Steps' we find is affective.
I think that you need a variety of paces in your trailer; the idea of a fast-paced montage in the middle is really workable, and, like you say, quite conventional. The music does seem to lend the title 'Fascination'...
