Posters in their environment
I decided to see how my poster would look if it were to be getting advertised on a bus stop or train station using Adobe Photoshop

Teaser Trailer Final
Haunted MTF Media Teaser from St Marylebone Media Studies on Vimeo.
We edited our film after getting feedback. From 00:13 we made the clip to the correct size. Also as from looking at our feedback we found that people said we overused the effects so we decided to cut the effect down from 00:17 where we added the blink effect to Charlotte in disguise walking down the stairs. We instead used a simple light effect called strobe. Also at the end my group thought the title and dateline looked a bit blunt so we added a red/maroon outline to it to give it the deadly look
Website Final Draft
I have changed the font of my links into the font Chartrand which looked more simple and was the font of my tagline so I stuck to conventions by keeping my fonts to a minimum. I also removed the review of 5 stars and just made the heading and tagline slightly bigger.
Poster Final Draft
As you can see I spreaded out my text more upwards making sure there was no huge gap inbetween the image and text. I also moved the two distribution logos up near to the billing box making it look a whole lot neater

Feedback to our first draft teaser
From looking at the feedback most have questioned why the mask character is after the symbolic necklace which is what we wanted our audience to question. It teases them and makes them want to find out what this necklace has to do with everything which will then lead them to watch it. So we have achieved this however some have said that we over used the effects and need to work on this. Personally I thought that the title and date at the end looked a bit to the bottom and not in the middle and also that the coming soon fades in too slowly and should come out when the background music has a up beat drum. We will discuss this as a group and start editing and making changes to our first cut. Also at 00:13 the size of the clip isn't720x576 at a 16:9 aspect ratio when Louise is putting on her chain and it fades to the next clip so we will need to change this to the correct size.
From feedback our audience knew what our genre was none of them got it wrong which means we have stuck to our horror conventions.

Feedback to poster:
-all text are right at the bottom makes the image look empty make it more spread out

Feedback to website:
-review of the times doesn't make sense as the movie is not out yet so remove

Music ideas
Blood Deep by sania_fatema
This is one of our music background idea we thought it sounded very eerie and built up suspense and you can tell its horror. It has high sounds with constant drumming beats which makes it more foreboding and the high pitch sounds emphasise this. However it is quite slow for our teaser trailer as our clips are fast and wouldn't go aswell and throughout it stays on the same pace.
Please Step Cautiously This Way by sania_fatema
The fuzzy sound to this creates a tension I can imagine this in a horror film with a young child as the main character as it has a lullaby feel to it at the beginning. However out of all the music ideas this is my least favourite as it doesn't go with our teaser.
The Whisperer In The Dark by sania_fatema
This starts of with a low beat and carries on for quite along time and then new sound starts to appear like a slow wind sound giving that spooky affect with high pitch noise.
Witches RM by Chase Plott
At first in the begining it sounded like the above soundtrack with the low beat and high pitch however when it got to 1 min 30 seconds it got faster and more high pitched with a eerie sound to it. I liked the fast pace as our teaser trailer is really fast and also right at the end there are low beats which can go at the end.
From all for soundtracks my group and I felt that Witches was the right sound for our teaser as it was fast pace and had a eerie/sinister atmosphere to it and built up tension whereas the others stayed at the same paced or was too slow

This is really useful as now I know what shots are appropriate and as the timing is on with it I can just find that time and look through the clips. This will save alot of time when editing our teaser

What have we done so far
We have finally finished our filming and now we can start editing it and adding sound etc. We filmed shots from different angles just to see what looked better in order to gain the best result. The location of our teaser did not change we took shots in regents park, regents park estate and also the garage of the estate. The people that played the characters roles did not change as it was Maria's sister Sylvia who played Louise and so was always there and also Charlotte in disguise was played by me and maria and this is why it was less time consuming as we didnt need to rely on other people. We will now start editing our film and adding sound and effects and our roles will change in order to get everything done on time

Filming
practise haunted from St Marylebone Media Studies on Vimeo.
This is what we have filmed so far, we were just practicing our shots and how to hold the camera, and what angles look more effective. We may use some of these shots for our real teaser as we thought they looked good and the props and lighting came out right after buying the light for the camera.

Organising the group together
In order to get our group together we usually text or call each other a week in advance in when we can film. However this has not always worked as one of us may have a emergency on that same day but to make the time efficent when one of us is away we will carry on filming and update them on what happened and the next filming they can have a go at it. We have become more organised by being aware that our deadline is not far and made it our first priority in order to finish our filming. We each took turns in filming I acted out some of charlottes part in order for maria to film and vise versa and Tina organised the props needed such as the costume for charlotte etc

What we have been doing
So far me and my group have started filming half of our shots. From practice filming we found that the lightning is not clear when it is dark and therefore we have bought a light especially for this and made a great difference. We have shot Louise finding the necklace and many shots of Charlotte in disguise. Maria and Tina took turns in filming while I acted out Charlottes part with Sylvia (Louise).
