what is the diffrenece between a film opening and a film trailer?

Film openings

• Enigma codes (hook) - Barthes theory
• Focus on hero/main character (Propps theory)
• Establishing shot for setting - action shots character in role/doing something
• hint towards disequilibrium (Todorov) but not necessary for 2 minutes
• variety of shots
• titles
• makes the audience want to continue watching
• everything works together (music fits genre)

Film Trailer

• provides a summary of film plot (outline - without ending)
• character roles are more defined
• short varied clips from the entire film
• clear idea about equilibrium and disequilibrium
• music as a selling tool

storyboard edit, new shots

i couldn't do the shots in school because the people i wanted to be in it weren't free when i was free and i couldn't organize time after school because they work and having things to do, but they are free on Sundays and as I'm already doing shots at church i decided to do some other shots at church as well. the good thing about changing where I'm filming means that i have a lot more freedom to what i want without disturbing anyone, if i was filming in school it would probably be during lesson times so few classrooms would be free and filming might disturb lessons and there are a lot more people to get in the way.

i wanted to keep the fade in fade out transition between the doors closing and opening in so i had to work out how i could do that without changing the plot or setting to much,

Editing

I've done the first 29 seconds of my film opening and realy happy with how it looks, the first part is easy to do, but im having problems organizing people to the next section, the scene set in the church can only be filmed on a sunday so i have very limited times to do it in,

11 of my shots are set in the church so the vast majority of my filming needs to be done on a sunday the rest can all be done in school, but most people dont have free's the same time as me so i will have to organize some time after school quickly.
