we would put where in the trailer. Here is the order of scenes we chose:
- There is a view of the city of London, to set the scene.
- Main character (Joe) is sitting in his office at work, sad and depressed with his boss shouting at him and giving him orders.
- He is home and he is looking out of his living room window when he sees a woman (Scarlett) get out of the car, swishing her hair in slow motion and he looks in love.
- They walk around the town together chatting he shows her around
- He goes to give a moving in present to her and his boss opens the door, he is the husband of Scarlett, unknown to Joe. He drops the present in shock.
- The friend of Joe (Dan) tries to talk Joe out of meeting up with Scarlett because he will get in trouble at work but Joe disagrees.
- There is a christmas party and Joe sees boss arguing with Scarlett, Joe is drunk and punches boss. After he does it he says "okay maybe that was a bad idea" then gets knocked out by boss.
- Joe and Scarlett go to a dance class.
- Joe goes to kiss scarlett but she pushes him away.
- Scarlett is crying and Joe is shouting "what do you want?" Scarlett replies "I don't know what I want!"
- We see a ring sliding off of Scarlett's finger.
- The titles come up.
- We see Joe and Scarlett walking around town at sunset we are at the back of them, they are joking and she pushes him laughing and he falls, she says, "oh my god I'm so sorry" still laughing.
During this task I learnt the importance of locations in a film trailer, as in order to create a genuine trailer, there must be lots of different locations. I included London, a house, a small town, a workplace, and a bar. This is quite a good variety that I will hopefully be able to achieve in my own film. I also learnt that the order of scenes should be mixed and matched so that the whole film isn't shown in the trailer. A lot of trailers mix up the scenes cleverly in order to maintain mystery, but also show audience basically what the film is about. I will use this technique in my own trailer.
