After getting Feedback on our first radio trailer we have made some changes from this feedback. After we were told that the sound clips from the film were not clear enough from one of our focus groups, we decided to listen to it for ourselves. We felt that the sound was of good quality and therefore decided to show it to another group of people who were our target audience. They then agreed that the sound wasclear enough.
I did all the editing for the radio trailer and put it all together so that timings were right. I did this on iMovie as it was quicker to copy the sound clips from the film across to create our trailer. We wanted to stick to the conventions of a radio trailer and therefore made ours 32 seconds long. A feature length film radio trailer is typically 30 seconds long.
We also had to add in voice overs. Georgina took the main responsibility for being the voice for this and therefore did the narrators voice and also the institutional voice at the end that gives all the information. When deciding about the information we chose to keep it fairly simple since this is a short film and they don't always do the same things that feature length films do. For example we didn't have a certificate rating as normally short films do not have this. Another thing we did not include were things such as famous actors as since ours is a low budget film we would not have famous people. However we did include things such as "the ultimate love story, modern fairy tale." This signals to the audience the genre of the film really clearly.
