Soap Trailer Explanation and Planning

My work partner Tilly Cook and I have been reasearching throughourly for inspiration and ideas for our very own soap opera trailer. We have seen many interesting and creative ideas which has helped us gather inspiration into which we have come up with our own idea. We have decided to base the trailer on a basis of five themes which would primarily target out target audience and would also attract a broader audience aswel.
The themes are:
  • Love
  • Betrayal
  • Hate
  • Mistakes
  • Death
 In the trailer we plan to capture images portraying the five themes being a few seconds long demonstrating the drama and tension that a typical soap opera holds. All of the themes are designed to play in a specific order in order to explain the soaps current storyline.

Brief Ideas - note form
Love The love clip will feature a male and female kissing each other with affection on the cheek in a private public place.

Betrayal Our betrayal clip will feature someone walking in and seeing their friend with their boyfriend/ Partner. Innically zooming in of the door opening, then zoom in of the clothes and underwear then two anonymous figures in the bed. We plan to shoot this clip at Tilly's House in her bedroom.

HateWe have decided without having to try and create anything being abusive and violent we decided to film Gemma Clark chucking a photo of her best friend and boyfriend into the fireplace. We will then go onto zooming in on the burning photographs. We plan to film this clip at my house at my fireplace.

Mistakes
We have decided to film a female character sitting in the toilets, perched on the seat looking distraught and upset.


Death
For the death shot we have decided to show two characters staring over a grave stone in a graveyard, staring blankly at it.
