Voice Over
Looking at the Trainspotting trailer we took the voice over at the beginning as inspiration for our film trailer. We thought that it was a good way to introduce the characters and give the audience a bit of information about the trailer.
The breaking of the third wall keeps the audience interested in the trailer and makes them want to watch more.
Taking the idea from transporting we reenacting this in our own trailer we placed a voiceover at the beginning of the trailer to establish characters and a brief background of the group of boys.
However we found that recording a voice over was not as easy as we thought
We had many problems:
We struggled to put emotion into the voiceovers, this meant that we had to keep retaking as we didn't think that it fitted the piece.
We didn't take into account the background noise at the beginning, this muffled the voice actor and made the piece seem amateur.
Mistakes, try try and try again!
We solved this problem by borrowing a voice recorder from the music department, recording the audio in a soundproof room where the actor acted while he spoke. The result was the voice over in the final product.
