Brain Storm

This is brain storming the ideas of the cake trailer, on the contribution of what a trailer should include. This encouraged us to build ideas and include the ones we needed for our trailer for example the genre we listed several ideas on what our trailer we want to create.

Remake of a Trailer: Thunderstruck

The part we are going to remake is the change of the abilities of the 2 basketball players. One in the trailer 'Kevin Durant' is a NBA basketball player who has got all the natural ability on being the best. However, the players change their abilities with one player being good and the NBA player losing his natural ability.

We want to build upon this trailer, and make it into our unique version of this film trailer: by editing our video from the camera, and adding the same features that are in this trailer for example 'One Wish'  In bold yellow and blue colours with effects of the words in the trailer to make it different but in our ability to make original with a twist.

However, the difficulty of this trailer, is that the Mise En Scene is at a basketball court but it has a packed crowed which we may not have due to the time length we have to make and edit the film trailer.

Mood Board

This is our representation of the trailer of cakes, with food orientated being bright, sweet and full of color. Which sticks to the mind of the pictures being used.

Inspirations

Inspiration on the candy and cakes used in a music trailer, to know how the cakes are represented to the audience.

Charlie and Chocolate factory: Representation of cakes, on the camera use to know if it's a close up shot or a rule of third shots. The usage of Mise En Scene used in this video as it's full of props to get an example of what they use in the shot so we can identify these stages and use it in our "It's a piece of cake" trailer

I've used a music and a film trailer to see the difference in the usage of the camera angles and to know how it's all represented in a place of a camera shot.  The placement of cakes and sweets is directly used and pointed at the camera to approach the audience eyes on the tender, loving, care of cakes. The usage of how much fun and enjoyment they have in the music and film video. In addition the colours that brings atention to itself, giving the sweets and cakes it's own character. This is what we need in our trailer about cakes, giving the cakes a bit of character and fun upon this trailer to signify and connotates the symbol of romance in the trailer.
