For the research I used Google Images to collect numberious examples of film posters, I used YouTube to look for romantic comedy trailers, and used IMDB a lot in the research process to view both posters and videos. I went on Total Films website to look at previous issues to look at the covers. Luckily I subscribe to Empire magazine so I personally have a years collections of Empire, which I used for research and inpiration.
Because I used Blogger to document my coursework the Internet was obviously involved. I used Blogger to present and post my coursework online as well as providing links and images to support my work.
Various programmes were used in the process of making our coursework.
For our Trailer we filmed our work on Canon video cameras and tripods to capture the footage, no professional sound or lighting was used in the process, this wasn't because we didn't have access to it but because through our research the lighting is usually very natural. On occasion we did have to alter the lighting but very subtly.
The footage was then uploaded onto the computer, and then edited on Adobe Premiere Pro. Intertitles were created in Adobe Photoshop, and music was taken from my iTunes library and transfered via memory stick to add into Premiere Pro.
Once we had finished editing our trailer we uploaded it onto YouTube, where we can now embed the video, or paste the link. We can also recieve feedback and comments on our trailer on YouTube, which would be a good source of audience feedback.
Our photos for both the magazine cover and the film poster, we held a photoshoot for our main three characters. We created a small set, where we put up two lights, a backdrop and camera of a tripod (which we did take of the tripod for different shots). It took a while to set up for our photoshoot and took quite a long time overall, but I think it helped achieve a professional look.
