Note to Moderator

Hello Moderator and welcome to my A2 Media Blog! 

Below are my completed ancillary tasks as well as my final teaser trailer for 'VENGEANCE'.

Situated under them is my evaluation, and then my production stage, all the way down to my research and planning at the start of the year. 

I hope you enjoy reading through, as much as I did in the process of creating it.

Thanks,

Sarah Elizabeth Martin.

Production: Film Trailer Update




My partner and I have decided to make our trailer black and white. 
We have decided to make the equilibrium a soft black and white effect to reflect that it is happy and romantic, but then decided to make the black and white effect much darker and sharper as the trailer progresses (to reflect the tone and action occurring).

Production: Film Trailer Update



Today I have focused on the sound element of the trailer 'Vengeance'. I have been using garage band to create a score of music. I have also been incorporating sound FX like nature sounds, school bells and phones ringing. These are all helping the trailer come together.  


Research and Planning: Learning Garage Band

As I have never used Garage Band before, and as my role is 'sound', I found it incredibly important to try and learn/understand as much as possible before tackling it myself. 
To do this, I watched multiple YouTube videos on how to make basic music scores:


By watching these I have learnt some basic skills and gained some knowledge about the software and how to use it to the best standard. 
While watching the tutorials I brought up Garage Band on my iMac and followed the instructions.
