Soft Trailer

Soft - Trailer 

In this task we were asked to create a trailer for the short film 'Soft' (Director - Simon Ellis) by using the short films footage and manipulating it into a trailer. What I found interesting about this task, having it be my first trailer ever made, was the selection of clips, and how it will portray film. 
I found it fairly challenging as I didn't want to show/give away the entirety of the plot through the no more than 2 minute trailer. It definitely had an impact on my thought process about how much time goes into a trailer and what conventions are used to grip the audience without giving away too much of the narrative. 

Overall I feel this edit was sharp and snappy but as always there is room for improvement! I'd like to think that I sold what the film is actually about rather than misguiding the audience viewing it.
