As my trailer can only include a small amount of media which I haven’t created myself I decided to create the slide which is seen at the very beginning of all trailers as opposed to using one from a search engine or existing trailer. I made this in Microsoft Publisher simply by using outlined text boxes, making it look as authentic as I possibly could. Here is my final image:

Following this I decided to create my idea of inserting an image of my character into an existing one of World War troops. I took a variety of images of the character in costume using a variety of shots for diversity and so I had a choice of what to use. I decided to use a long shot and used Macromedia Fireworks to colour the background all one colour. In Microsoft Publisher I made this background transparent and inported an existing image of the troops which was found on Google. I positioned my original image so it looked as believable as I could and then edited the brightness and contrast and made it grayscale in colour so it would blend in better. This still didnt look completely authentic so when I import the image into Windows Movie Maker I intend to put a video effect on it called ‘Film Age – Older’. Now my edited image is complete (see below)
