31.1.11

Today Katie and Nikki took photos of me to use for our magazine front cover, using the photo from 'The Grudge' we started to create a similar image.





Using photoshop we edited in lots of darkness around the eyes, and more hair over the face and blended it all in with a black background. We haven't finished the image yet so we will carry on with it next week and then put it into our magazine cover.

Unfortunately Jamie was not in the lesson again so we couldn't do anymore editing to the trailer

24th January

Today Me and Katie created a mock up of our magazine front cover. Using the layout and font from a previous Empire magazine for inspiration. Unfortunately we don't have our own images yet so today we improvised using another movie poster from 'The Grudge' and worked the layout of the text around this and will arrange them around our own image another day.



Nikki and Jamie were off sick today so unfortunately we couldn't complete anymore editing as Jamie has all the footage on his own external hard drive which we didn't have access to.

Jamie has been experimenting with the use of sounds to enhance the views feelings and create an eery atmosphere. He has been using synths, samples, strings and other sound effects. Nikki has been re-editing our trailer, which has involved adding in small sections and changing colours. Megan has been giving constructive criticism on both aspects of sounds and editing, her input has helping Jamie and Nikki make choices.

Today me and Katie researched into film magazines such as Empire and Total film, after getting a few magazine covers we have decided to use a similar layout to this one. We're going to change the bright colours used on this to a more dark/scary suitable colour palette for our movie.


We also liked this layout too from Total Film Magazine


Nikki and Jamie carried on today with editing the move trailer while helping with the research
