Next Step

I looked today during lesson at the 180 degree rule and look forward to using it accurately in the making of my trailer.

I have concluded on the idea of a trailer by the name of 'Poor Old Chap' which will be shown at the end of my clip as a film almost 'coming soon' and not at the beginning to give it a sense of realism. I want to make sure I choose the correct font and style to show my title. Something that needs to be right and is so important to any video in terms of attracting an audience. My idea today was that I could have Poor Chap and then use a transition to make it Poor Old Chap in a flowing sequence whilst making the Old bit revolve or slowly come into the frame to reflect an 'old' movement.

I want to aim for my clip to be around 1 minute long and want to concentrate on a degree of accuracy rather than trying to include everything into my video. I want the main clips to show a boy struggling with work with exaggerated amounts of work in front of him at a table. I want to create this classic scene by having files and folders everywhere but want to have facebook on in front of him or him just on his phone to reflect some youth and humour into the shot. I want a brief clip of him playing football or practising however this certain scene I believe will involve the shots I know I have to include.

The shot of somebody walking through a door, across a room and engaging in conversation sat down opposite another character. I think that my character whether that's me or somebody else acting will come in speak to a mother figure about his football or lack of ability. Not that he knows that complaining about not being in the team. I also want to try and include some humour and comedy into this particular clip.

My final shot just before the name and credits of the film appearing will be a mother figure shouting for being generally  'a bit rubbish' about work, football and just about losing her son. I want this to be a powerful and funny shot for the audience however I want this to be a negative for the character playing the 'Poor Old Chap' .
