Within our film trailer we included a
number of different text shots and photos which allowed us to add features to
the trailer that were commonly seen within trailer of all genres. 
When inserting the text into the trailer we used filters which allowed us to have smooth transitions between the filmed clips and the text we had within the trailer. We chose to have the text move in from one side of the trailer frame and then move out to the opposite side. This helped make a transition between text and filmed footage within the trailer that kept the trailer flowing without gaps or pauses. The text we inserted into the trailer using this features included actors names, release date and creators information. For the colour scheme of the text inserted into the trailer we decided to stick to the colours used within the colour scheme of our films poster. We use a light grey colour for the text, and displayed this on an plain black background. By using this we also connected within the conventions found within thriller film trailers during our research. Our research showed the grey and white writing on a black background was commonly, an if not always used for the text seen within thriller film trailers.
Below shows the text created and seen within our trailer.
Along with the text mentioned we also placed the title of our film within the trailer. For this piece of text we used a different style. To connect with the last filmed piece of footage seen within the trailer we used a lens flair to text transition. This worked as an interesting transition from the end of the trailer to the text
showing the title of the film.
This was because the final clip showed our main character running up a pathway into the sunlight. This clip contains a lens flair which was similar to the one used within the text displaying the film title. The final clip in the trailer and the transition to the film title text are shown below.
Along with text we also inserted an image into the trailer. The image we inserted was the Billing Block for the film. We created the billing block with
white writing on a black background to fit in with the colour scheme used for
our film. We then placed the photo of
our billing block into the film. We positioned the billing block right
at the end of the trailer because our researched showed that this was when the
billing block was shown within trailers. This was for all trailer, not only
trailer within our film genre.
