While we were editing the footage for the trailer, I remembered that in order to make it look like a professional trailer, we needed to include key conventions which are used. This consisted of having a green screen right at the beginning of the trailer, which would only last for a few seconds. We decided to use Google for research, and to see whether they had one that we could use.
As it shows from the above picture, Google didn't appear to have many images of the green preview screen. Furthermore, they were mainly to do with American movies and audiences, whereas we wanted to have a British one as this is where out movie would show first.
Originally, we thought it would look better if we had the age rating on the green preview screen too, somewhere in the corner. However, after looking at the images, it came to our understanding that this isn't included here, but at the end of the trailer and also on the actual certificate of the movie, which wouldn't be in our trailer, as this is only shown before the movie starts.
After doing more research, my group and I realised that a green preview screen is more to do with American audiences; nevertheless, this didn't stop us from wanting to include this in our trailer, as this does make the trailer look professional.
We then decided to just use an image from Google, verifying that our movie has been certified.
