The feedback we received on our trailer informed us that we had forgotten to add in commonly used features seen within real media trailers. This included a rating card and distribution company logo. Because of this we placed both of these at the beginning of our trailer. We did this because as pointed out in our feedback, all trailer have a company logo and generally all have a rating card shown at the beginning of the trailer. By adding these in we connected our trailer with real trailers and made it look professional.
The rating card and the distribution company logo are other features that all trailer have. The rating card is used to notify the audience the trailer is suitable for. After this we placed the distribution company logo. The distribution company chosen for our film was Warner Bro’s Studio's. This was the logo included at the beginning of the trailer. All of the photo's used within the trailer are shown below.
Other changes that we made to the film trailer included improving the transition of the music within the trailer. Our feedback included a number of comments mentioning how the music within the trailer suddenly stopped at certain points. Because of this we researched in how to fade the music on iMovie. Due to the sudden change of editing programme, no one in the group was familiar with the programme so we were not sure how to fade the music. Because it had been brought up in many of the feedback comments we spent the time researching how to do it to make sure that the music within the trailer was heard in the way expected by the audience. Fading the music allowed the trailer soundtrack to have a smooth transition between sound and silence. Along with fading the music we also made it slightly quieter. This was another suggested improvement within the feedback. Doing this died down the volume of the music and allowed the voice over to be heard clearly.
