This is reasearch post into two current well known old style police drama's. We felt doing a bit of research into these would help us in our production as the creators of these two dramas would have had to deal with the same problems we will face when filming of making sure that nothing post 80's is included in our filming scenes as this would represent a massive continuity error, a good example of this would be making sure that modern cars are not included in our trailer.
To research in to these two dramas we watched a few clips on youtube to gain a basic idea of what kind of indoor and outdoor locations where used as this will be an important choice we will have to make when it comes to finding and choosing locations that fit in witht the time period we want our trailer to appear from. We also used these clips to help us gain an idea of what police figues in the 70/80's would wear as attire,and what kind of props we would need to fit in with the time period.
Here are some of the clips we found we could use as inspiration for our costumes and locations ect.
When we watched this video i struck the idea in our head that we could use predominantly leather jacket based costumes as this would be a lot easier for us to access than some other 80's clothing.
We felt that this trailer showed us a lot about costumes and props. It also in a way gave us an idea of how to included mutilpe fast short clips in sequence, and provide certain 'cliffhangers' such as gunfights and explosions. We found that watching particully this trailer got the ideas flowing in our head,and gave us good idea's on how to succesfully construct the trailer.
This 'Life on Mars' trailer is quite a short trailer but we again felt since it showe firstly in the may, and then in the 80's it again presented with an idea of how our film to exclude modern items from our film.
The thing that i noticed was that when he is in the modern day and drivng, the road signs are really modern and so are the roads and sourounding buildings.
This then changes to him in the 80's and you can clearly see the difference in the locations, clothing, props.This giving us a good idea of what we need to do to create this effect in our media.
