Re-shoot 29th November

Whilst in post production i decided that instead of the opening shot just being words on a screen, i should add a shot of the Trilby to establish it as the main prop of the film. I experimented with the camera and getting it to zoom in and out smoothly, i found this a bit of a challenge at first because the camera kept re-focusing, i also tried panning from different props to the Trilby hat, this was also hard because i kept jolting the tripod and it showed up on the playback. In the end i decided on a still shot of a CU of the trilby hat. I wanted the words 'Golden Pictures Presents' over the top however because of my limited skills on After Effects i found this difficult. I need to improve my knowledge in this area. I did manage to put the text over the top but when i imported it into Premier Pro it would not run smoothly, i will need to rectify this. 

Back in post production i worked on editing the shots in time with the music, this is an important aspect of trailers because it grabs the audiences attention and is a vital convention of trailers which can set the mood for what the film will be. I originally found it difficult to edit in time with the music because i was worried that i would need to cut shots down considerably in order for it to change in time. However i was lucky that the start of the music fitted in all ready and it was a case of editing around this. I still need to find another track to pick the pace of the trailer up.
