Example - Kickstarts

Not only do i really like this song i also think the music videos really good. It has a lot of nice shots in it and its also very animated which i like quite a lot. It looks like a lot of time and effort has gone into this video. Some music videos don't have much going on in them but this ones fun to watch, it doesn't bore you at all.

The Hangover 2!

Genre:
ComedyDirected by:
Todd PhillipsStarring:
Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ed HelmsRelease date:
Thu 26, May 2011

I was just looking through a list of new films that have been released and some that are soon to be released and i came across The Hangover 2! which I'm definitely going to see because the first one made me cry of laughter. I actually can't wait for this to be released, something to look forward to.

I just searched for the trailer on youtube and luckily its out already as its soon expected to be released. The trailer made me laugh so now i'm even more excited to see it!

Grave Encounters

I wanted to go and see this film but watching the trailer made me change my mind a little mainly because i thought the ending of the trailer ruined the whole thing. I think this because it looks really fake and every time you see someone standing with their back faced towards you in a horror film you expect them to turn around with a hideous looking face, so basically it didn't scare me either. I read through some of the comments posted by the public about what they thought of it and to no surprise many of the comments made were negative and were about the ending of the trailer. This shows that a lot of people think the same  way about the ending. Other than that i thought the rest of the trailer is quite good and builds up tension, it also makes you want to go and see it. I'm guessing that this film will get a lot of views because a high number of the public like to see paranormal stuff going on. For example a huge amount of people went to watch Paranormal Activity 1 and 2, me being one of them. I guess paranormal films manage to grab a lot of peoples attention.

Here's the trailer of Grave Encounters:

Fast & Furious 5

I haven't seen this just yet but i'm going to go see it on the weekend hopefully. I know a few people that have been to see it so i asked them whether or not it was worth while, everyone i asked seemed to love it so im quite excited to see it!

Here's the trailer:


I think this trailers really good cause it makes you want to really see the film as it looks exciting.

Final Draft!

I'm pleased to say that all our hard work paid off although it was quite tough sometimes. I'm happy with the end result and think that my group and I done a great job for our first AS piece. I hope that the people who have filled out the evaluation sheets were impressed with our work too.
