As a group we showed our rough cut to our class in order to obtain some constructive criticism and feedback to help us make improvments when it comes to editing our second cut. The class commented on the following things:
- music should be added to make it more generic to soap opera trailers as most have some sort of music. It will also help to add tension and create mood.
- The opening of the trailer could maybe need something so it doesn't start so abruptly.
- Pub scene actresses are over exagerating and it doesn't really fit in with the rest of the acting.
We will consider these points when it comes to making our second cut, particulary adding music as we feel this is very important and will help make our piece more conventional and effective. With regards to the comment about the very start of the trailer, we will be adding a fade from black to the start to make it seem like the trailer is 'eased' into.
We can justify the use of overacting in the pub scene by saying the characters have very loud personalities, and are excited about the wedding.
