This is the original trailer for Shaun of the Dead
This is the remade version of the same trailer. I chose to create a more serious rendition of the comedy movie. Although the plot would be relatively parallel, the mood has been drastically changed. I managed to achieve this by using a distinct soundtrack behind my chosen clips, the song being Karma Police by Radiohead. I concluded that if I put it on Youtube I have a chance of being reported for copyright infringement on the basis of the movie, however I am certain that Radiohead would not try and remove my audio as well. Regardless, I decided to choose the scenes that I chose simply because they were the most realistic considering very few parts of this movie were in any way real. I debated on doing a voiceover but due to my pre-mature voice I decided it would be best not to. This choice ended up working better as the lack of narration and pure music engages the viewer and helps convey the mood that I was aiming for. I would have to say that I am satisfied with the outcome although I am aware it would have been preferable to also change the plot more significantly. Since this is my first experience with editing clips and audio I can only say that I am proud of my finished product and I hope you enjoy it. ;)
