Rough cut 1 with notes

Here is my first rough cut of the trailer.

I do not have my personal soundtrack yet, so I have used copyrighted music - the same tracks that I have used in my animatic. This will be changed in the next cut.

I still need to add the inter-titles throughout as well as think of a title for the film. (The ident needs to be added at the start - I have made this but have left it for out for now, purely to speed up the upload time).

I still need to add around 10 seconds of footage - this will be another scene intercut with the strobe lighting in the third part of the trailer.

Audience feedback from my peers included comments about the amount of movement within the trailer. Therefore I want something that will add fluidity and tension, and am planning to film a scene with a lot of movement in the camera. This will be done in some sort of stairwell / building block - this footage will give me different levels (moving up / down stairs) as well as motion (running) within the frame.

I also want to change the ending (with James drinking the tea), as it does not fit with the rest of the trailer, especially after the pace has been building throughout. I am planning to make the end more dramatic, perhaps with editing in some more of the strobe scene.

I may take out the ambient sound as it seems distracting to the soundtrack and voiceover. However, I do like the sounds of the train and the tap dripping.
