PlanningTo begin with myself and seven other students were put into our filming groups. Before we
began filming we had to research ideas and watch similar soap opera trailers such as Eastenders, Hollyoaks and 90210. Once we had conducted our background research we came together to discuss and put forward ideas for the trailer. From here we drafted up ideas, creating simple sketches and scripts.

Planning
Each partnership came up with different scripts and scenarios that we could base our trailer on. The ideas and material were viewed and put into discussion to decide which we thought worked best for the trailer.

Planning - Characters
Jack and Charlotte are another couple in the soap, Jack a teenager who has it all going for him is about to get the shock of his life. Charlotte seems all innocent but in reality she secretly cheating behind Jack’s back.
James comes across as quite nerdy and the type of person who would stay out of trouble. But he seems to be getting involved with the wrong kind of people, this can only end badly.
Tyson is the bad guy of the soap, he is known for his previous criminal conviction and is now making his money through selling drugs. For the soap opera we had to dress this character in dark colours such as black to represent that he is bad.
Craig is a sly character who is knowingly cheating with his best friends girlfriend.
Max and Sophie are the main couple of the soap. The are dressed similar to indicate that they are interested in the same kinds of things making them seem a real couple.
All the characters are dressed in casual clothing so that the audience can relate to them and it makes the soap seem realistic.

The music that I decided to use for my trailer links well with the story line, ‘I Gave You All’ is a dramatic song by Mumford and Sons which contains powerful lyrics that fit well with the events that unfold in my trailer. The part of the song that goes, ‘I gave you all’, can represent a variety of events. It links well with the unplanned pregnancy of one of the characters and the cheating scene. ‘And you rip it from my hands’ stands for the murder of one of the characters boyfriends as he has been taken from her life in the worst way possible. ‘Well now you’ve won’ fits well with the unknown murderers who killed the characters boyfriend as they have done what they wanted to do. The fast paced rhythm of the song gives a panicky feeling and lets the audience know that many things are happening.
