During the next two lessons we were aiming on finishing the trailer of our pretend film. Giving us two lessons, we ensured that we would have more than enough time to edit it together, add music and all the needed elements which would then make it look like a realistic trailer. Such elements include font and titles.
While editing the trailer for an Imaginary Friend, we used Adobe Premier. This was a good opportunity as we were able to explore editing software's and see which ones we are most comfortable and familiar with, once we reach the editing stage of our final trailer. For the first time it did appear as a challenge because we were using iMovie last year to edit the two minute opening of our film, however, with practice this is something we were all be able to overcome.

Lesson 1 of editing:
We mainly tried getting used to Adobe Premier as this was quite different in comparison to iMovie. We firstly looked through all the footage, seeing if the clips captured were fitting to the narrative and would further fit in once put together to create a trailer. We then started thinking of orders we could put the clips in as through analysing other trailers we have learnt that the scenes don't need to be in order. This is because if the trailer was in the scene sequence as the actual film this won't entice and get the audience interested in watching the rest of the film. We therefore, tried to pick out the best parts that would make it as professional and appealing as possible and started editing them together.
Lesson 2:
During this lesson, we mainly focused on titles and music as in our first lesson of editing we managed to put all the footage in the order we thought was best. After adding the music, titles and institution logo we then went over the trailer and tried to make some last minute changes where appropriate. This helped bring it along and make it better as we might have not noticed these little mistakes at the time due to the limited time we had.
Through this editing part of our task, I have learnt that it is important to take time and carefully think about the order of scenes we include in my final trailer. In addition to this I have learnt that I need to carefully consider where I place the titles and text in order to make it as professional looking as possible. I'm still not sure which editing software I would like to use while editing my final trailer, however this is something I can think about later on as I could try both and see which one I am more comfortable with for the best outcome.
