Poster Rough draft 1



Soap opera magazine rough draft 1

Rough cut 1



We showed our rough cut to our demographic audience and gained feedback to see what their impressions were of our trailer, poster and magazine. This is to get the feedback and make any changes that we hadn't thought of before. So far our trailer is only a rough cut and we are aware of that fact that there is still a lot missing but it was still helpful to receive both positive comments but also things they think we could improve on.

Some of the positive comments we received helped gain confidence in our trailer as we are aware of the parts that people thought worked well which would help when it comes to making our second rough cut. Some of the positive comments include a good setting. Most groups commented on how they liked where the trailer was set and how its different to other trailers. Another was the characters and costumes as the mise was well thought about. Some groups commented on how the costumes they wore fitted in well with their character and the personality that we wanted to show. It revealed a lot about them as characters by the use of colour and connotations. Other positive comments include ones like good use of various shots, unique ideas and good use of lighting.

The demographic audience also gave us a few things they believe we could improve on after watching the first rough cut. What people mostly commented on was how continuity was not always accurate. However, we put that down to the trailer not yet being finished as we understand it does not yet fully make sense as not all scenes have been put in yet. The feedback for this did prove helpful as there were certain shots that they found discontinuous that we had not before noticed. Other improvements were ones such as no titles, voice overs or music which are all things we intend to include as we continue on improving our trailer.

Final Costumes

Final Costumes

Here are the final costumes that the characters wore when filming our soap opera, we changed the outfits about quite a few times for it to create the correct mood for our trailer. Fitting the right costume to the right character is a very important part when making a production, it gives the audience an immediate insight to the character before they know there story.
