The film campaign was created a film campaign facebook page dedicated to it to give audiences information and regular updates about the film through a medium that they are already exposed to. Whenever the page is updated or something is posted on it, the post goes into their personal new feed where they can see it. Facebook is a very popular social networking site that has millions of active users. This was a wise move putting the film campaign on a page there so it can receive the fans it wants as you only have to search the name to find it, or it can be shared through viral messaging fast through statuses and news feed links.

Th

e comments on the video are to give me a good perspective of an outside point of view of my film. Below are some of the comments that were posted on the film video.

Magazine.


This is my magazine that i have created for the horror film campaign. This is a film magazine that focuses on films and more specifically, British films.


Stills 2

This next photo i have realised there was people not intended to be in the picture in the background and it is too late to change this, i have created some cut-outs of the main character from a picture i took of the costumes and continuity shots i took. and now going to transfer them onto another picture of a forest. This should give me some freedom in how i am going to go about this.















This particular image is perfect for the magazine cover as it has much room on the side to manipulate the text ontop of the image.














Stills

Here I have taken some stills for my Magazine and Film Poster, I do not like how the final form of them how they look so i will make adjustments to how they look using adobe photoshop to make them more appealing and more fitting to our genre of horror.













I decided that the girl looks too small for the poster so I decided to edit her so she is much bigger in the picture, looking more menacing and also becoming more of an icon in the picture. Drawing your eye to her as she is so big.

After this, i decided that she was not looking supernatural enough to really portray the sub-genre of supernatural horror we were going for, so i decided to add a negative effect on this.









I think this is the effect that really fits what i wanted to do with the pictures.
i could have used a black and white negative effect to make it even better so i will do that now. to see how it will come out.
The black and white effect i have used on the negative picture is exactly what i wanted for the Film poster. the black and white looks very spooky and makes the audience look at her.





I shall use a different picture but with the same effects for the Magazine cover as i will need to edit the girl in a different place to fit the other aspects of a magazine into them.

Filming.

Our trailer was filmed on two separate dates, one being on the 10th of November where we shot the house section of our trailer. This was shot at Michael Cooke's (Team Member) home. This was a perfect location as it was a good, well furnished house that fitted the synopsis well. we shot in the evening to create a sense of mystery and fear as it was dark and gloomy, so that shows in our trailer as the location has very limited visibility further than the focus. We had the props ready at the house beforehand so we did not need to bring anything with us on our travels. The day was also very cold so we had to keep warm otherwise we could risk illness.

Title.

The title design that we have decided to use for our film is a font that we found from the font website DaFont. This website has tons of fonts that are free to use, so this website was a very good resource for us.

We tested out many different fonts in many styles using the websites tool to see your own text with the many fonts on the website, this made it very easy to choose a design that appealed to us and out audience.

We decided on using a scary font that was also easy to read. This font uses a splatter effect on it that looks almost like blood, portraying evil or danger.
