Re-shoot/Re-editing our horror trailer

During our creation period of our horror trailer, we did have to re shoot and re edit some parts to make it a better piece of coursework overall. The first point why we had to re shoot was due to our characters. Two of the characters we had, left the school and could no longer be part of our trailer. For this reason we had to find new characters and re shoot everything we had already done. At this point, we had about 30 percent of the footage we needed and then had to start from scratch. This was the main reason why we had to re shoot our movie trailer but was influenced by other factors as well. 

     We then visited each of our four locations to gain more footage and shot here until we had this. We then added it into Sony Vegas and found out that we needed more footage in order to maintain a trailer over 1 minute long. Also, some of our shots didn't end up looking good so we had to go back to the location and film this again.  This only took about 20 minutes at each location so it wasn't too bad. This was everything we encountered when it came to re shooting our footage. However, this was a long process that took a considerable amount of editing to go with it. 

     For the amount of filming we had to re shoot, there came a lot of re editing that went with this. For every time we changed our footage, we had to add this into Sony Vegas and cut the sequence. For all of our new footage, we had to cut it to fit in with the music of the film trailer. We also had to change the font we chose for our writing within our trailer. Our first choice was to have red text on a black background. We then changed it to white on black and changed the text to make it more effective. We also had to cut several shots down in length due to our teacher telling us that they were far too long. After this comment, we went onto Sony Vegas and cut down some shots in order to make it a more convincing horror trailer. 

     As you can see from the above, we encountered lots of re editing and re shooting and had to deal with it. This was a considerable amount of work that needed to be done in order for our coursework to be more of a success. We had to make sure we used our time wisely as we had other bits of work needed to be posted onto our blogs. I think we dealt with it well and re shot plus re edited our trailer well.
