Research and Planning: Film Magazine Cover
I added a slight green tinge to the cover to link in with the theme of the trailer, but only slight so that it represents a magazine. I used the reds, blacks and white colours also. I enhanced the redness of the blood by using the paint tool and added a spotlight with black faded edges by selecting Filter; Render; Lighting. I also enhanced the eyes with an orangey colour by using the same technique I did with the blood.
Research and Planning: Steel tongs, Distribution/Production Company and Title on Film Poster
This is my Steel Tongs Font Credits with enlarged title to fit the screen. I also put the distribution and production company logo's in at the bottom, but put down the opacity to make it not be too loud. I also added a website and twitter trivia, I didn't put the Twitter icon in because its assumable that the target audience would know what they are for because Twitter is a popular and modern trend.
Research and Planning: White Text Slogan Dilemma
After getting the audience feedback, I was happy with how they said white text looks best. However after adding all the Steel tongs and added features I feel it looked too bright and loud so to compromise I added in a gray colour and made the words "Past" and "Future" white to stand out. I also made the "Bring" and "Disappears" text a red colour to make them words stand out as well.

Research and Planning: Audience Feedback on Trailer, Poster and Magazine
The audience feedback was really useful and constructive for how we can progress with our Trailer, Poster and Magazine Cover.
Notes that we picked up on were ones such as creating a more flowing montage, adding more sound and having the same font and style text running through the trailer. Also a point made was to put a black screen at the end of the trailer so it didn't end on the characters face.
Throughout the feedback we also received positive reviews such as how all products so far were linked to each other and how well it was all coming together.

Research and Planning: Film Trailer So Far
I think so far the trailer is a little messy and too random. We need to improve on the sound also because it overlaps some of the shots and makes them unclear. The structure is sort of coming together, however needs improvement. However I feel with the footage we have it won't be difficult to make these improvements. We may need some extra bits of footage, but we may not depending on what the outcome looks like in the next upload.
Research and Planning: Film Magazine to Date
I made a last few changes to my Film Magazine after seeing a few little errors such as the texts not being in line and the right hand side looking a little bare. I made the Masthead larger as well.
