Top Gun Maverick Teaser
For this assignment we were tasked with achieving a graphic teaser from a movie without using any footage from the movie itself. At first I started with a much more abstract editorial approach, and slowly worked the concept until the story became more clear, and the video became more graphic…
Style Frames
The beginning of the concept starts with a mood board, and leads to style frames. These will be the guiding points of the story throughout the editing journey. I had trouble starting at this point, always wanting to jump right into editing, but now I understand the importance of the order of events, as my story was not clear, until my style frames reflected them.
The Editing Process
As you can see from left to right, I had quite a few changes throughout the process, even going so far as starting over several times, and changing the sound bed (music/sound used). I edited the sound bed itself multiple times, until it fit best with the story.
