After reading how digital game trailers can be the deciding factor for a gamer, and how they establish the mood and style of the game I decided to try and make my own. (Wesley/Barczak, 2010)
I began by using After Effects and a lot of tutorials, after a few attempts I created a simple (not for me) title animatic for my trailer...
Title animatic
I began thinking that perhaps I had bitten off more than I could chew with my aim to create a game trailer to use with my game document as I had very little experience with After Effects and it was hard enough to create the above animatic, let alone a full trailer with sound that I would need to edit together as well.
My first problem was creating the audio, I had the voice work that I wanted to use and a sound effect for the transformation that I liked but I still needed a music piece to glue it together. After a lot of searching on Adobe Logic I found two that I liked and so I began the painstaking process of editing the video and audio together so that it would be seamless. I ended up with something far from perfect as there were a few glitches and no animatic of a transformation that I really wanted to show but it was something I liked anyway...
