Mise en scene

The mise en scene throughout our trailer is the location of the area of where we filmed. This is due to the fact that the location used to be used during the World wars. This adds realistic effects as the mise en scene is realistic.

The make up and clothing will also come as part of the mise en scene as it come sunder what adds tot he scene to make it more realistic. We had the army clothing which allowed for the realistic view of the army. As this is what we normally see the army in the proper clothing which then allowed for mise en scene to be accurate. The make up put on was dark, we put dark on under the eyes to try and make it look as though we have not had enough sleep and we are running out of proper nutrients as this is what it was like in poor conditions of the war. During our trailer we had a shot of blood on her hands and laying on he ground, this allows the audience to believe that we see gory parts of the film but as a 15 trailer we could not show too much. 

 

The lighting of the trailer is mainly through the day but it is all ambient lighting, This means natural lighting. when it comes to our night shots we used a torch to act as a spotlight so we could see what is  happening in the shot. When we were filming there were some days when it was raining and quite dull in colour which fits in with the mise en scene as it adds to the overall view of war as it is never bright and cheerful it is dull, as we did not have to put an effect on the filming as it was already quite dull.

 

Storyboard

This is our storyboard of what we want out trailer to be like. Emma made this Gif by using various online software, i am glad she has made this GIf as i would have not been able to make somthing like this. I would have reverted back to drawing the storyboard and going from there. This storyboard is not what we have to go by but just a rough idea of what we want to involve. This is not saying what shots we are going to use, which we will decide when we come to filiming the trailer.

Plot

When we planned the film trailer we wanted it to be  a film trailer that will show the progression of the war but not showing who the enemy is.

We wanted to show normal life of and have a voice over that will describe that do you remember what the old  days were like, this will then show that something happens that means that something will change. this will be when we see a cut to women
in training.

When we made this plot we all sat around the computer and put in ideas of what we want to be in the trailer. The whole point of us doing that is so we all then get an idea of everyones ideas and inputs to the film.

Our target audience

Target Audience

When thinking about the target audience for our trailer we have had to take into account whether the ages of our audience will actually go to the cinema to see it or buy it on DVD. 

This is why we have thought of a mass audience and a niche audience.The difference between a mass and a niche audience is that one has more of the population that it will appeal to. Mass audience will have more of the population. Niche audience is  a small amount of people that it may appeal to.

Our mass audience will be 20-30 years old as these are more the ages you would go to the cinema rather than are older audience which would be our niche audience. from the ages 31- 80 as the film could relate to everyone in the categories but when thinking about the success of the film we needed to think about who it would sell to better to.

Our mass audience will be a passive audience as they are more than likely to go and see it in cinema due to their interests.We thought our niche audience will be passive as they could relate to war life as some of them may have been growing up after the effects of the war or can relate to the pain of losing others due to war.

Clothing

The clothing we wanted to use throughout the trailer is black and dark clothing. We wanted dark clothing to follow conventions of war. this is because they are not going to wear bright coloured clothing as it will get them noticed. We also wanted wellies as where we were filming it was really muddy and this also gives it more of a feel of war as they used to wear boots during the war.
We also used green clothing especially when we get an army outfit for when she is training to fight as this gives it a more realistic feel of what is happening.
