Shushana Brennan 4106 Skylar Grove Final Project (Before Feedback)


Audience Feedback Q3
From the screening session which we did I got relevant feedback in which helped me re-edit my soap trailer to make it the best of my ability.

Here is the overall positive feedback:
  • As my soap tailer, compared to the other trailers in which my group created, I had more conflict between Paul (Jack) and Kayleigh (Kate) made my trailer more dramatic, and more darker.
  • It feels like a trailer for Emmerdale.
  • The ITV title card at the end of the trailer matched the brand of the institution.
Then I got some critical feedback in which I could make my soap trailer better:
  • It needs to run more linear
  • The edits need to be more tighter to create emphasis on the drama within the trailer
  • There were quite a few continuity errors within my trailer which confused the audience slightly as at one point Paul (Jack) leaves the living room but then later on he is back in the living room talking to Kayleigh (Kate) so it was said that I need to changed the order of my edits in my trailer.

Shushana Brennan 4106 Skylar Grove Rough Cut

  • I don't think the song fits with the soap (Sara Bareilles- Kaleidoscope Heart), it's has a slight happy tone to it and that doesn't quite work for my trailer as my soap has a lot of sadness within it, I am deciding on whether I should change it.
  • If I do change my music this means I may have to change some of the foootage used and the timeline of the footage within my trailer so that it fits in with my new music.

Day of Filming


On filming day we realised that we could film all of our scenes within the location that we were filming, for the office scene initially we were going to film the office scene at Aquinas college in the media office but as Jo Boyle had an office/study within her house that we were using for other scenes we decided that we would use that office instead.
Also for the scene on the bench with Biance and Geoff (Shushana and Kris) initially we were going to film in a car park near our college but with the location where we were filming other scences, to our advantage, there was scope to change this so that we could keep all of our filming local and reflect the conventional ideals of existing soaps where the basis of the soap is where it is located.
