Small Change of Brief

Though since I began this blog my partner and I have been setting out to create a trailer, certain events have resulted in us altering our brief. During the post-production segment of our overall production we acquired a number of feedback from our Audience. When shown bits of what was then a Trailer, we received these comments:

Audience Member 1: "I really like the shots and filters, though I think it's possible you're giving away too much of the storyline."

Audience Member 2: "The footage is perfect, but I think for a Trailer it lacks pace and really looks like the opening sequence of a film."

Audience Member 3: "I love the storyline, but most trailers don't reveal as much which could be a real downside."

Due to this unanimous feedback we attempted to find out if we could adapt our brief to fit the project we then wished to create. We found that it would be possible to fit the new brief as another brief provided by OCR is the first 2-minutes of a Thriller Film including titles. With minor edits from that point onwards, we succeeded in creating the film we wished to create the first time around. The two drafts and final film will be found in posts higher up. We were informed this change of brief would be justified if we added one detailed analysis of an opening scene as conventions are very similar.
