Before filming more clips for our trailer, we decided that it would be beneficial to create a timeline of events. This would help us greatly, as when we continue with our filming, we will have a clearer idea of what shots and events we will use, and how long they will be. Below I have placed the different sheets of paper that we scanned into the computer, showing our timeline. During filming, we may choose to change certain elements, but drawing it now helps us to bring all of our ideas together, and give us a clearer idea of how we want to film our trailer.
These three parts show our completed rough outline of the timeline, which shows the different shots and ideas that we thought could go into our film trailer. What we have planned so far would roughly translate into 2 minutes 30, which would be the maximum length we could have, as we have to follow the official time limit for film trailers set by the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) which is 2 minutes 30. Following our timeline will allow us to clearly think about what clips we need to film, and the direction we want to take with our film trailer. Having our ideas planned out clearly means that we will have a clear idea of what will happen next.
