Movie Trailer Final Presentation

Finding Nemo Movie Trailer

For class on, Tuesday, November 6th, we watched everyone's first draft for the movie trailer project and provided feedback. The feedback included what the class liked, as well as positive criticism on how to improve the video. 

For my project, I made a movie trailer for Finding Nemo. My trailer consisted of a variety of shots from the movie to give a brief overview of the plot and scenes from the actual movie. Some feedback I received was to make the audio louder and to make the transitions smoother.

I took this feedback and went back into Adobe Premier to fix these things. First, I re-watched my trailer and began making the transitions smoother so the video flowed better. Then I raised the audio, specifically on the shot with the two birds sitting atop the ocean. My original trailer was 2 minutes and 13 seconds and my revised trailer was 2 minutes and 16 seconds. I added a few more seconds to help with the transitions. 

In class we learned about how to work with audio in Adobe Premier. Audio is measured in decibals. The audio meters are symbolized by the greenish, yellow bars on the bottom right hand side of the screen in Adobe Premier. For broadcast, the audio should be no more than -12 dB. When sending it to Youtube, which is what we were to do for this assignment, the audio should be close to -3 dB. We learned how to work with the "sequence" in order to add tracks. We also learned about the "toggle track output" and "keynotes" in order to adjust the audio.

I have learned a lot more about Adobe Premier through experimenting with this movie trailer project.

My final project has been uploaded onto my Youtube account. The link for my final movie trailer for Finding Nemo is as follows:
