Harry Potter Film

This is a film Poster for the new Harry Potter film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows(left).The poster can be seen advertising the film on the sides of busses, on the underground, on billboards and in many other public places.

     The poster is advertising the film in a much different way than the other Harry Potter films. The poster shows the new film as being more of an action-packed, adventure film rather than a magical childrens story. This is shown by themais en scene which shows harry as being quite dark and serious, the lighting is dim and the colours used for the poster are sinister black, blue, grey colours, but with speckles of red across the bottomwhich gives the impression of blood, this makes it seem like the new film may contain voilence which makes it not so much a film for small children anymore but instead a film that is to be mainly enjoyed by older children and even adults.
     The setting is cloudy and stormy giving the idea of danger and excitement, adding to the idea that the new Harry Potter Film will be more sinister and thus more interesting and exciting; appealing to a wider audience than before. The text shown on the poster is minimalistic but it gives all the vital information; it describes the film as HP7 Part 1, this shows that it is only the first film meaning that it will lead on to a next one. It calls the film HP7 and if you are already a fan of harry potter you will know tha the HP stands for Harry Potter and even if you are not a fan you are already expected to at least know of Harry Potter due to the many other forms of marketing, and about the previouse films thus figuring out the style of poster and actor (plus the fact he is holding a wand) and coming to the conclusion that it is the new harry potter film withought it actually telling you.
     The poster also includes th date it will come out, as well as a small statement written on the poster saying Nowhere is safe in order to excite the target audience into seeing the film with the idea that the film will push the boundaries of becoming a thriller rather than fitting its original steriotype of being a magical childrens story.

Song

Harry used GarageBand to create the song for our film opening. He wanted to create a creepy track to play as the opening credits role in, and so he used GarageBand in order to do so, firstly by choosing a dark, intense, orchestral sound to carry on throughout the track. He then cut it down, re-arranged it and tampered with it until he thought it sounded right. He then added a vinyl crackle sound at the beginning and at the end of the track, to give it a rustic, scary feel to it that sounded realistic as a track. He then added in a simple hip-hop beat which he did not add intending to involve any sort of hip-hop style to the soundtrack but instead just to add a bit of texture to the song. From that specific beat he only wanted the sound of the snare and aspects from the beat so he cut it down very small, cutting bits out of it and added sections of the beat together in order to remove the hip-hop beat from its original state, creating a new sound that is fitting with the eerie, terrifying theme of the film, fastening the pace of the track, making it more entertaining and creating an aspect of intensity. Overall his intentions were to create a track that was simple yet affective. He wanted to create a song that was not over the top or too over-stimulating as it was created to be a soundtrack for the opening credits of our film, and i think he has achieved this.

Heartbeat

Harry created the heartbeat sound effect after he finished creating the music track. We wanted to add extra effect the the scene where the girl is being followed down the alley, and so we had the idea of the sound of a heartbeat slowly speeding up as she walked through the alley. In order to do this he downloaded a simple sound effect from youtube of a heart beating that gradually speeds up, Harry converted it to an mp3 file using a basic online converter. He then used garageband to edit the sound effect, cutting it up and cutting it down so that it fitted in with the scene we wanted to run it over. When it was done he used a memory stick to put it onto the group S editing computer, and we edited it into the film, i think that it sounds very affective and fitting to the genre of the film, being horror/thriller.
