Research & Planning: Magazine Inspiration
I have decided to make my film magazine a 'horror film' special edition. This issue of Empire is a Harry Potter special edition and has been helpful to see how the magazine has kept its original house style.
Research & Planning: Poster Research
These are some posters that contain elements I would like to incorporate into my poster. I like the idea of having my poster in black and white as I feel it represents the genre quite well.

Research & Planning: Rough Cut Trailer Feedback
Strengths:
'Good acting' This has shown that our chosen actor is a good choice and therefore we will continue to work with Harriet.
'Logo's are good' Beth created the logo's using photoshop are fit with the genre of our film and look professional.
'Editing Transitions were good' The editing process was done quickly however it worked well and fitted with the genre and we are going to use some of similar transitions especially in the asylum scenes.
Weaknesses:
'Storyline was unclear' This was something a lot of people said and we realized it looks unclear to the audience as they don't know the rest of storyline. We do need to film more scenes that include other character will develop and show the story a lot more clearly
'Change location/make more convincing' This is something that I agree with and want to improve however talking to our teacher she suggested cropping some of the shots. We could look for another location however this may be difficult.

Research & Planning: Sound Research
For our trailer we want it to have a distinctive sound track that will create atmosphere and tension and let the watcher know when something bad is going to happen.
These are some popular soundtracks from horror films:
