Our animatic of our storyboard is a more detailed plan of our teaser trailer. It has all the scenes that we are planning to film, edited with transitions and a song in the background. The storyboard show how the teaser trailer will begin. As you can see we have decided to use 3 different production companies, as in previous research we found that teaser trailers use one main production company in our case we will be using Universal which is a popular company used by Rom-Coms. We will also be using mine, Rachel & Mercedes' company from last years coursework and Alex's from her trailer she created last year. These will be Jellyfish Productions and Wolff Productions. These companies will be heard with their original sounds in the background too. These will only last a few seconds and will lead into the teaser trailer through the use of a transition. We have decided to do this as we saw that Rom-Com trailers use more than company and this is a convention we wanted to keep. The soundtrack we put in the background is not the song we will use in the actual teaser trailer, but we wanted to find something which would give a good idea of what we will be using and will be trying to portray to the audience.
Throughout our teaser trailer we will be using a few different questions/phrases which will help the audience to understand the meaning of the trailer, the narrative and to hook them into watching the film. We also found that other Rom-Coms such as Love Actually and Valentines Day use this convention, which helps to hook the audience in. After the production companies the first title that appears is 'He found Faith'. This will be in Pink and Blue, as this is the themed colours of our teaser trailer, poster and magazine as they suggest a boy and girl and are also typical romantic colours used in Rom-Com films. We used this phrase as it suggests that the young boy thought he found his true love, it also grabs the attention of the audience and hooks them in. At this point the background tune will begin, making the trailer more romantic and add a romantic atmosphere for the audience.
We will also try and stick to a colour scheme of Blue and Pink for the poster, as these are strong colours that are often assosiated with gender.
