What we did in Todays Media lesson

In today's media lesson we edited what we have of our film and played around with the effects that we could use on adobe. We settled on using 'ghost' on a clip of Suzi because it looked good and gave a eerie edge to the clip. We also used 'outline' to outline some of the clips to make them sharper and edgier. We looked on Freeplay Music to see what music we could find to go with our teaser trailer. We also looked on YouTube because we wanted to find a clip of White noise (static) from a television because we thought that it would add to the eerie sense of the teaser trailer, to do this we converted it on the a media converter and dragged it into adobe and then dragged it onto the parts of the clip where we wanted the white noise to be. We only used a few seconds of it, so like a subliminal flash, so you think you see something but your brain doesn't process it until it has gone.

We showed our friend Milly, because she gets scared easily and we wanted to know if it scared her or not, it did and she was very creeped out by the fact that Suzi had a contact lens in her eye and it gave connotations of a weirdo, someone who isn't quite all there, I get connotations of someone such as Jekyll from Mr Jekyll & Mr Hyde, as he has a split personality, such as Suzi might've done in this clip.

In our next media lesson we will be adding music and finding the final elements to the clip to make it finished and 'scary.'
