Teaser Poster

The First Draft

 

For my teaser, I wanted to create something that was mysterious. I wanted it to have an element of secrecy or something that was 'almost hidden'. The inspiration behind my poster was Allegiant teaser poster. I thought this was a great idea and fit out story extremely well. The idea of having something being blurred in an attempt to hide whatever is beneath it. For my first draft there are a few errors I made. This is spelling as well as colour error. I used a white colour and this wasn't very impacting and you couldn't see it from very faraway therefore it needed to be changed. As well as this the '#Invisible' was extremely dark. I also thought that having a date on the teaser poster gave to much information away therefore this and the spelling of cinemas needed to be addressed.

 

 

 

The Second Draft

For my second draft I changed the colouring to make it more visible and eye catching. This was successful and grabs attention quickly. I also changed the date to 'coming soon 2016' to create a sense of mystery. I also added the slogan 'It's time to see things more clearly' as it is almost like the blur is hiding something important and it needs to be exposed or sorted. This helps represent the main reason for our short film and also helps to further portray the fact relationship abuse is not spoken up about often enough. I also changed the Facebook and Twitter signs to that they fit into my poster easier and give it a more professional look.

The Script Development

The Script Development

I first wrote the script and after I had finished doing so gave it to my fellow peers to assess. I then got this back and mad the modifications and gave it to an external person to look over and give feedback. From this, we have created a script that we believe will tell our story well. Below is the scripts.

Short Film Contract

Awareness Productions Contract

I created a legal document in order to efficiently organise the crew and members of the film. This contract states the requirements needed of the crew members as well as cast and what is needed for them to be graded successfully. There will be a peer assessed sheet for everyone to fill out which will also affect the overall grade that we achieve.

This is what would have been asked for in the industry therefore it is good practise to do it now. As well as this, it makes our short film appear more professional.
