Whilst looking a trailers which portray affairs, a common transition used to depict the affair was 'fade to black' this was very effective as it almost confined the mystery in their actions and made the affair look more secretive and sophisticated, in our trailer we will be using fade to black as it will give that scene more sophistication as it could be soon a comedic way because it is unbelievable, the trailers also used fast paste cuts to fade to black to speed the scene up and to make it look more serious, we will be using this in are trailer.
This trailer uses fast paste fade to blacks which will make the audience focus on the scene more as it is harder to discern exactly what is happening. Especially if the relationship between the two characters is a mystery, there is only so much the narrative revealed about the characters the only enigma codes revealed where about the affair. This was effective regarding this trailer as it will hook the audience making them think what else happens? And how exactly did this relationship develop?
This trailer is very successful in illustrating a teacher and students affair as they use interesting media language throughout the narrative, the high key lighting used to show the happiness in the friendship and then the low key lighting and dark mise en scence to show the developing affair and fast cut fade to blacks to show the powerful impact of the affair, i think the diegetic sound used was very effective as it made the affair more epic.
With our new storyline implemented, it was vital that we compose a draft of what this trailer would look like, quite simply the narrative has been modified so it directly addressees the over 24 audience, in the beginning of the trailer we question their integrity asking them questions they think they know the answer to, which is do they really know who their children are talking to? With the increasing use of social networking.
it is becoming impossible for parents to control who their children talk to and we think this idea will appeal to 16-24 audience because of school based narrative in the beginning, and possibly because they can appeal to the problems the character is facing. Our idea is controversial and very interesting because it raises issues about a child's safety at school, and allows that older audience to think carefully about the types of relationships their students could be building with teachers, and how teachers are responding to their behaviour.
We have now changed the storyboard slightly which will be included in our film and we just need to make sure they are appropriate and well done in order to allow the scenes to be to a high quality.
The next step is to look at these scenes and start filming these shots and to create the trailer by adding them all in and starting the editing process.
