Poster Design

Each of us attempted to make an effective film poster in Adobe Photoshop, and this was our final choice. The institutional information contains all necessay credits, such as actors, editor and director. This was simply typed up in word, printscreened and then inserted across to the poster in photoshop. However, we had issues with the 'magic wand' tool, so had to add a black background to the text before saving and copying it into the final design.

The Website

Here is a link to our website for Procure, made using Wix in a flash website rather than a HTML one. We began making a HTML one which is here but instead we wanted to have more objects moving, so we opted for flash. Procure website

Production Company Subsidiary Logo Design


As we intend to use an animated title, we decided to use a video clip, as opposed to animating stills. Rather than filming the shots ourselves, we decided to use a pre-existing video clip on YouTube. However, it took some time to find one suitable for our production.






Once we had found a video similar to what we had in mind, I downloaded it with Realplayer.






 
Once downloaded, I then edited it down to the required 6 seconds in Windows Movie Maker at home, as the clip was 18 minutes long in total.




It was then exported in high definition in order to match the shots we had already filmed and uploaded to Dropbox to then be edited n Pinnacle








Once uploaded, it was spliced every 12 frames and some were deleted at random in order to produce jump cuts. A filter was then added in Magic Bullet and adjustments were made in Chroma Keyer. Finally, the Movie Trailer Complete motion title was added.

Sound effects were added from Soundbible.com, as the sound from the actual clip wasn't what we required.
