In our trailer we needed to add text into it to show the title of our film, star ratings and the phrase "A MODERN CAT & MOUSE GAME" in between clips. These also help break the film clips up causing the clips to become quicker and quicker without it looking wrong. For example after the phrase it shows 'Lilie' then running and looking back whilst looking scared whereas before it was just clips of her moving slowly being slightly intoxicated. This tells the people watching that an event has taken part and her reactions have now changed dramatically.
Another text screen we wanted was one to show the title of our film and put star ratings on it. This caused us a lot of problems as we could not find a suitable star image. To over come this I cropped a poster with 4 stars on it and a black background and created the image below.
However this still caused us problems as we could not transfer the Photoshop picture onto the slid on MoviePlus. So from there we went into Word and tried to see if there was a star symbol that we could use which would easily be able to use on our slide as we could just enter a text box and type it in. However there was no symbols that were star shaped. In the end we decided to use the '*' key to see if it would look good or not. Luckily when we made the symbol bigger it looked good and professional. From this we decided we will just use the '*' symbol as our star sign.
For our text as well we added an effect to make it glow before showing the text this makes it look eerie and scary which was what we wanted in our text. It keeps in with the theme of a thriller film and like the film you have to wait to see what happens or what it reads in the case of the text.
