Using iMovie-Part 7 (Placing Images and Backgrounds)

After showing the big institution logo, the logo for my fake institution appears. This is because a convention within trailers is showing several studio logos at the beginning. I created this in Photoshop and it is reminiscent of the MGM logo which is of a lion in a circular ribbon roaring
Before any content is seen, the text 'This Halloween' is seen. It has a red font as red is symbolic of blood and danger. It is against a background of space. This background is one of iMovie's own images that can be found in the 'Maps, Backgrounds and Animatics' section. The darkness and emptiness of space helps create an eerie tone. The sky littered with stars is reminiscent of nighttime which makes for the setting of a large part of my trailer.
When my trailer ends, the logo for 'Coulrophobia' is seen. This is at the end of the trailer  as the title would remain in an audiences mind. I created this in photoshop by using the logo from my magazine cover and placing it against a background of a burnt circus tent. This circus tent is the background of my magazine cover.

My trailer ends with the release date in a stylised and bold italic font. It is against the same background of a burnt circus tent as my title was. This is the final thing seen in the trailer to ensure that the date of release also remains in the mind of the audience members.
