these are some still photographs from some of my initial films. Although they and my films are in portrait format i am going to try and integrate them into my trailer- hopefully i can frame them in a way which makes them look more effective. i mostly wanted to play around with the overall style to get an idea of how i could manipulate certain parts of the film.
the photograph above reminded me a lot of someone standing to attention and it is set against the obvious beach background referenced in churchill's speech. i upped the contrast to fully whiten the sky since i think it worked better as a blank background and introduced colour into the flag to make it the main focal point and to introduce a modern element.
i sepia toned the photograph above to give it an older feel and added a small film grain - i liked the position of the flag which was clearly visible within the frame and the overall pose which was supposed to convey British support which is another reference to the speech.
i manipulated a texture on this image to give it an otherwise fairly bland photograph a more interesting quality. altering the blending mode to soft light created a smoother texture and i burnt in the edges to frame the scene and draw the eye inwards.
overall im really pleased with how my films so far have turned out, hopefully keeping the flag as a common theme should ensure the continuity.
