On screen text: And an idea, I had for how we should write/show it. (Ferhiyo)
Screen text: WE'RE ALL PAWNS IN THE QUEENS GAME - We should use the colours of the chess pieces (Cream and Black) or (Cream and Brown) for the text, as it would have more of a meaning, and would develop our narrative a little bit further (I believe).
A possible idea:: (I was thinking, that we could use some of these signs, and put a big black cross on it, to illustrate that, the protagonist hates, the insignificant players (Us). (The pawns of course, and the other pieces which have an unimportant value to them e.g. the Bishop, and rock?)
Stick them on the trees, as a symbol of death maybe? or the fear/danger of loosing the game of getting away with what, we've done. (The killing of, Rose's brother)

More music possibilties?!
This is "how i dissapear" by My Chemical Romance ,i thought it could be another music posibility perhaps? As it suits our genre and creates a notion of darkness as well with its intense drums.

Makeup (mise en scene)
Makeup! okay our makeup for Rose will include:
- Pale foundation
- Baby powder
- Eyeliner
- Red lipstick
- Bronzer
All of this will help to create our achieved effect on Zainab,as it creates a villain type aspect of the character.There will be more of an emphasis on the eyes as they will more focus on them.

Lighting-effects
The Lighting effects will include the folllowing:
- A torch
- Led lights
-Flood lights?
The use of a torch will help to create shdows on the main protagonist face,(Rose) ,this will achieve a notion of darkness and death,which is conventional in a Horror film.
Led or Flood lights will create high focus and intensity on all of our faces,which will give it a more professional look.
Our lighting is low key lighting obviously,which adds a darker dimension to it.

Soundtrack
Hiyyaaaaa! this is the music we are gonna use!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dstFO-4qzl0
Bang bang Bang bang - Soho Dolls is going to be used when the shot gets all intense in the trailer ,and it introduces itself into the dilemma. Also it creates suspense and tension as it invokes dark/murderous emotions.
And now this is the opening music;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c72kRV03_vE
Darling Violetta - i want to kill you
This music is suitable for the opening scene ,as it foreshadows the dark,creepiness that lies within the trailer.

Production Intentions sheet
Target Audience : Our group checkmate have mainly chose the target audience of 15-17 year olds , this is because they are one of the biggest mainstream audiences in the UK for horror/thriller films . The film will be targeted at those whom mainly are interested in twilight, the omen and etc. The film trailer will mainly target young teenage girls , however the added visual effects and gun shots , plus the violence will probably attract a male audience as well . Men at that particular age love to watch anything that contains scenes of hanging , shots, blood and swearing .The Socio Economic Group for this trailer is E because its mainly aimed at teenagers , but would not be suited towards families ! , as the film trailer is rated 15 not 12 !.
Setting :
There will be three primary settings for this film trailer , firstly in the drama studio , as we want to create an sense of dynamic tension , through the use of under lighting and torches , plus naturalistic lighting as well . Time will be portrayed via the use of , daytime scenes for the school sections with the main character Rose walking through the gates of the school building . Some scenes will be filled in the woods , this is because many gangster films and horror films take place in woods .Also mystery can be created, and if a person does get murdered then it’s very hard to find the culprit for it . Which is why the use of the woods will be done during evening time or sunrise (if possible) .Narrative of our story is that a new young school teenager ( rose ) , her best friend is killed by a main culprit who will not be revealed until the whole trailer has been finished . Basically our target audience has to work this out !.
Characters:
Rose –Zainab
Willow –Harpreet
Nicole – Ferhiyo
Kate – Sivagowsi
Lena – Soniqua
Things to do :
Light art is a cool way to express yourself… or just make some pretty cool light images. Starting out with light art can be tricky, but as long as you have the right equipment and the determination, you'll be making a light art masterpiece in no time.
All you'll need is a camera with an adjustable shutter speed (set to slow shutter speed), and small, portable lights (more the funner). Be creative with whatever you choose to draw and your setting. This can be done anywhere, as long as light conditions are right

Production Intention
Synopsis
The plot for our trailer consists of a vengeful girl called Rose who takes revenge on a group of girls who bullied her younger brother, causing him to commit suicide. The group of girls mainly bullied her brother as he was a “geek” who played chess, so now Rose swears to end their lives. She does this by using the game chess in relation to her brother as a basis to cleverly kill the girls, like the game goes. Whenever Rose kills she says the words “checkmate”, in relation to winning the game, and her winning by killing them. Eventually after she’s killed all of them, the police lock her away in a mental institution.Characters

Target Audience
Teenagers aged from 15-17 and who are most likely to be females however our secondary audiences are Males with a similar age range. Hence, they are more likely to belong in the E socio-economic demographics; because most of them are students. We’ve decided we are targeting ‘Explorer’ from the Young & Rubicam theory. In additon our target audience belong in 'Asian' ethcinity, because most of our characters in the flim belong in the similar ethcinity.

Checkmatessss - I found some trailers to look at, and sound... (Ferhiyo)
The girl who played with fire - Trailer!
Guys!! I actually like the non-diegetic music which is played in the background, so I was thinking maybe we could use a similar sound to this for our own trailer...

We could use this sound in some parts of our trailer...
Check out the first 25 seconds of this trailer, is quite good - Ignore the rest though, is not relavent to our narrative...
Saw;Trailer - The editing in this trailer is quite good...
I hope this will get you guys thinking!! I'll post some more trailers, and sound up later, when I find good ones whilst browsing... anyways - enjoy
