Creating Twitter and Facebook pages for our Website

To have links on our website to social networking sites we decided to create a Twitter and Facebook page for our movie trailer.

Creating the website title

To create the heading I used the same website as we did in the movie trailer, dafont.com. I wanted to keep the same style font as we used in our trailer, so the style would continue through all of our products. I have kept the colour scheme simple with just using the colours red and white, as I don't want the home page to be too over powering.

Creating My Website

I have decided to use the website Wix to create my own website. I have never done this before, but the reason I am using Wix as it gives you set templates, is free to use and I am able to log onto my Wix account whether I am at home or at school, so it is easier for me to access and edit my website at anytime.

Once I set up a Wix account I was then able to start the process of making my website. The picture below shows the template that I am going to use.


The reason I have chosen this template as the front page has a simple look. It will allow me to insert my movie trailer on my homepage as this is where it should be, as it is my main focus of the website. The simplicity of the home page allows the attention to be only on my movie trailer. The tabs located at the top of the page will make it easier for the users to navigate their way around my website as I aim to create different pages as well as just my home page. The title 'The Ouija Deal' will sit at the top of the page. I will change the colour scheme so it continues on from the colour schemes we have used in the movie and also colours that are represented with our genre of horror.

Class Review of our trailer

Today in class we all had a look at each others music videos and movie trailers. This allowed us to give each group constructive feedback on what myself and Remi felt they done really well but also what we think they should change/do the make their music video/movie trailer even better.
These are the sheets that are given out for us to write our comments on:




























The feedback that we got for our movie trailer that overall it was OK. We got a few areas that our peers feel that we need to change/do to help us in improving our movie trailer overall. One of the main changes that was suggested by everyone was to turn up the volume of the people's voices so you could hear them speaking over our background song.

Changes to Sombre Production Logo

In this photo you can see that the starting scene is of the Sombre Production logo. After getting feedback from our media teacher, she suggested that it looked too much like a star wars them with the colours. After looking at the logo again, we agree with our teacher and decided to change the colour of our logo to fit our movie trailer better. We didn't want our trailer to be associated with Star Wars.


This is how the Sombre Productions logo looks now after we decided to change the colour to red.
