There has been a few changed made to my story board. The reasons for this is that when on set to film your shots, you either find that the shots don't look right, or add in shots you feel could be needed in your trailer. I have had to add in quite a lot of new shots due to fact that what I had didn't convoy the narrative of the film, therefore going against my aims and intentions. For example, I have added in more shots in the third part of the trailer were the pace gets a lot fast as I needed to show my character being more risk taking and outgoing which has slowed me to get across my narrative. I have chosen to add in a scene before the fast pace section to really build up tension which allows the audience to then be thrown into fast pace section as before, it when from a medium amount of tension to a lot of tension without gradually building up, this now means the audience because more invested and more on edge when watching.
Also I feel i underestimated the length of the trailer, meaning that it was vital to add in more shots to have a conventional length trailer.

Trailer Music Ideas 2
I had to choose a piece of music that was dramatic yet uplighting, and therefore I had to get the right pace to be able to express the genre of my trailer. When choosing a piece of music for the 2nd part of my trailer, I had to bare in mind that I needed a good rhythm to put my clips to, as it needed to be fast paced and short shots. I chose to use 'Shake it Out' by Florence and The Machine, as i felt the song had a few different levels of intensity that I could use to build up the pace etc. When I asked my target audience what they thought of the piece of music, they said it was perfect and it was also 'catchy' which means the song is well identifiable and when my audience would hear the song, they would think of my film. As this song is well know, I was able to also find instrumental versions to use.

Trailer Music Ideas 1
These are a few examples of songs/pieces of music I tried using for the first part of my trailer. The genre was indie-pop has this suits the genre of a teen drama very well. I needed to have a semi-uplighting piece that is dramatic yet also a fun and happy song to listen to, so I can set the right tone for my trailer. The characters are two best friends having fun together so I needed a piece of music that would complement this.
The problems I had were that some of the songs were too fast, too slow, not uplighting enough, too uplighting and also didn't have instrumentals available.
I chose to use 'Made of Light' by Mikky Ekko, the same artist whose song was used in the 2nd part of the PaperTowns Trailer. I found that the start of the song was long enough to create that instrumental part in the beginning scene.
