We started to think of ideas for our soap trailer, and by watching the original trailers of both Hollyoaks and Eastenders, we realised we should try and make the trailer as creative and unique as possible. Unlike soap adverts that usually promotes a certain storyline, we needed a way of introducing the characters and getting the point across that this soap is new.
Our initial idea was to have the characters all standing along a straight road, and the camera follows the main male character in an over the shoulder view as he walks down the middle of the road. As he reaches another group of characters, the camera would pan to them and a flashback of a situation with those character would play. We thought of editing the scene and giving it a sepia hue to make it seem older, as it was something that happened in the past.The camera then returns to the over the shoulder of the male characters, and he continues down the road with various other flashbacks. The male reaches the end of the road, where a police car and several policemen are waiting, indicating that the main character has committed a crime to each of the characters in his flashback.
