My "Star Trek" Edited Trailer

I just wanted to share my movie trailer project that I had to do for the digital tools class. I was excited about this project ever since I looked at the syllabus for the digital tools class and noticed the movie trailer project that I was going to do. I always enjoy watching movie trailers because they build up the anticipation for the film. After working on this project I have great appreciation for the people who edit movie trailers. The process takes A LOT longer than you may think because you have to make sure you set the tone of the movie, include a brief plot synopsis without spoiling the movie, and you need music that fits the drama of the movie. This project took me about 18 hours of work and I LOVED every minute of it. I chose to edit J.J. Abrams' Star Trek because I love action and science fiction movies. Also, Star Trek is one of my favorite films of all time because it is very well made, the visuals are amazing, and the cast is incredible. I may edit this trailer more in the future but I am pretty happy with what I have worked on thus far. Criticism is welcome just don't hate on it too much because I put a lot of work into it. I had issues uploading the video to my blog post but there is a link below. Enjoy!
