Research and Planning: Editor's Log

Today I have edited the colour of the daytime shots within the film, because they looked too light and do not fit well enough with a horror genre. After tampering with brightness settings I found the scenes to them have too prominent colours within themselves, so I changed the saturation on multiple scenes to create are more grainy looking effect.

Today I worked on changing the magazine to make it look finalised, which it now does.

I also worked on the images of the film poster, looking at other posters such as that for Body Of Lies and noticing there is never a border over the top, so I made the image take up the whole page, as well as changing the opacity of the bracelet image.

Today I have edited much darker clips into the film trailer, as well as changing the titles to appear rather than fly onto the screen. I did both of these because of feedback from my tutor suggesting they would fit horror genre conventions far better.
After piecing together the clips and ordering them, to include the sound at appropriate moments as well as portray some of the narrative, I received feedback that some character's roles are unclear. It is however, still obvious that they are a villain, so I feel the curiosity built around these characters would make the film more enticing for an audience to then go and watch in order to discover what the character's role may be and who they are within the film.
