Final Caption Correction
When we re-edited our music to the final product we, for some reason, lost the titles which were on the final caption. When we replaced the final caption I decided to change the font that we used because I found one which looked very similar to that used on 'Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels' poster. Below is a JPEG of the caption. Now that this is in place our trailer is now entirely finished with all final editing complete.
Music and Copyright
After reviewing our trailer we noticed that we had used a copyrighted piece of music in our trailer. This was a mistake made on both our sides that we didnt notice till recently..
Iggy Pop's Im a Passanger is the main theme song we used in our trailer. This was a copyright music that we didnt realise. Hence we had to change the music that we used to a piece that we found on a perfect website called Freeplaymusic.com
This work has been exceptionally challenging as it has taken up a lot of our time in trying to find the perfect track that fits our whole genre of the movie.

Film Poster Ancillary Task
For the last few lessons I have been working on Adobe Photoshop to create this film poster below. I personally find photoshop a programme that is very confusing but this has helped me to become more competent with the software. The image that you see below in the poster was one of many that were taken on a photo shoot with all members of the team which gave us a sufficient amount of images to create a poster with enough room for changes of images.

YouTube
This lesson we uploaded the final cut of our trailer on to YouTube. This is a good way to get feedback from people outside the class. When we posted it up we realised that there was a problem with the sound and that the song that we have playing in the background had not kept the editing changes at the end of the song which had faded it out and cut it at just over 2 minutes. This means that before we embed it on to Facebook for extra feedback from our friends we will need to make sure we correct that error.
Captions
During the time that we have been editing our video, I have been coming up with the captions to add to our Trailer. We decided on the captions instead of voice overs as it wasnt fitting on our video. The captions give the story line and the characters names in the course of our trailer. This has made me learn more about Photoshop and been usefull for future use.
Here is an example of the caption

Rough Cut
This afternoon we are preparing to show our rough cut to the class. This is a great opportunity for recieving feedback, both positive and negative to help us make the final adjustments to the film. However there is still around 15 seconds of footage missing because the person that we needed for filming had other commitments and was unavailable for filming, so we will need to put that in in our spare time. At the moment it stands at 1:45mins so we are very happy with the progress.

Plans After The Holidays
Before the holidays we were landed with a large covering of snow that prevented us from filming outside if we wanted to keep the continuity. Now that we are back at school we have made plans to film this week to get our final footage and complete the editing before the deadline on Friday.
