Re-shooting:

After completing our first draft for our trailer, it was pointed out to us that if we included a more wider variety of shots, it would be more "trailer-like" as most trailers generally include shots from throughout the film, especially as we are creating a teaser trailer. However as we are not filming the whole film, we had to set up specific shots that would only be shown on the screen for our a couple of seconds but would add diversity to the type of shots we included.

We decided to use the girls that we photographed for the Polaroids, this made sense as they would have a role in the film and so are already featured in the trailer anyway. As we were focusing on the girls themselves, this meant we didn't need to look for a specific location to use as a background so we filmed all of the shots in school, saving us time.

We also realised that an average mid shot of our killer sitting down in his living room, didn't add anything to the mise en scene of our trailer and stood out as a bit bland so we changed the shot completely and just did a close up of his knees as he sits down.

A collection of the shots we used in the final version of the trailer are below, including more close ups, a point of view and a shot where the camera was on the floor.
