Poster for Westbourne Way

This is our poster and we have decided that it will look and be set out like this as we think that it would most likely be viewed on the side of a bus. This would be good for us as this is a type of transport that our audience would be using.

Music

We have customized and edited our music using the program Soundtrack pro. This program is very useful as it allowed us to shorten and length various sections of the music to fit in with our trailer sequence.

Filming

Our main actress Hannah at the train station filming location!

Over the half term the group has been busy filming footage for our Soap Opera Trailer. Communication was a huge aspect of this part of the project as we had to discuss with one another where we had to be, who had to be there, what time we had to be there....and the list goes on! Also we had to contact other groups to arrange who needed to use the filming equipment when and how we would transport it between us.

Our group was fortunate enough to be able to work with an actress from our school; Hannah Howgill. Hannah is very good at drama so it made the process of filming ten times easier as she responded to our instructions very well and produced some really good footage.

We gained permission to film in a local train station which provided a very good setting for our trailer, the overall atmosphere on the day was brilliant. Also at this location we were able to capture still images for the poster and TV listings magazine.

Me (Sophie) using the camera and tri-pod!

Holly, Rachel and I all participated in operating the camera and capturing scenes. We each remembered the codes and conventions of Soap Opera trailers used a variety of different shots in various angles.

When we return back to school after half term we will be editing the footage to create our trailer!
