Poster Genre Research

We looked at examples of coming of age posters and noted that all of them used particularly bold colours and often featured the main protagonist of the film. We conformed to this convention of including the main character as the trailer/ film focuses on the life of Archie and his death. However, we subverted the conventions of the genre by doing our poster in black and white to suggest to our narrative.

Sound

For our sound we knew we were going to have a voiceover throughout the majority of the trailer but we also wanted some music which reflected our genre. We tried out various different songs we knew and liked and settled on 'Two Fingers' by Jake Bugg. We loved how upbeat it was and felt it truly reflected the genre. Obviously, due to copyright, we knew we would be unable to use it and so we recorded something with a similar feel. 

Jamie Weekes, who also recorded our music for our AS Opening Scene, created this piece of music for our trailer. We are using this track at the beginning of our trailer and we feel it has a 'coming-of-age' feel to it.

We then looked for music we felt to increase the pace of our trailer and again link to our genre. Charlotte contacted Noah Kittinger, a fairly uknown artist about his song 'Nostalgic Feel' as we thought it would fit with what we had produced. 

Logo

This is our final logo. I created this animation using PowerPoint and scanning in drawings. We felt this is quite successful as it ties together all the elements we had originally brainstormed.

Poster Draft

These were the two designs we came up with for our posters. Originally we drew out two different posters and presented them to the class in order to gain some feedback. The overall consensus was that everyone preferred the first design (above) as they felt it helped to portray our genre better. From that lesson we then went on to experiment, we realised the quality of the images were not great for the first design and we also struggled to merge the two effectively. We then went through our image folder and found the picture (second above) and decided that that could make an effective poster which helped to portray our genre and instantly show an audience who the main character was. These were our first drafts and we have since gone on and edited the poster to make our overall design.

Storyboard

This is the first draft of our storyboard. Since completing it we realised our narrative does not have a hook and therefore we will be make changes. What we will definitely be keeping is the way the characters are presented through freeze frames and the idea of a voiceover being present throughout our trailer.

Script

The left side shows the beginnings of our script and our rough planning as to what to include in it. The right side shows our final script and any changes in the trailer will be small tweaks.

Model Release Form

Due to Hannah being under 18 we had to gain the consent of her and her parents to use her in our work. This was not a necessary process for our other actors as they were all over 18 at the time of filming.
