This is 4 star mash up assignment “Ben Harwood’s Track blazing troubadour” it is mash-up assignment 135. The assignment read:

“Make a movie trailer by taking a trilogy, or any series of movies (LOTR, Saw, Final Destination etc.) and combine scenes from all the trailers to make one trailer…”

I chose to use Toy Story, I found a trailer for each movie and mashed them all up together. (Media used: Toy Story 1, Toy Story 2, Toy Story 3)

I used a few small clips from each trailer to create my own trailer! In my new trailer the story line is a little different. . .

While Andy and his friends are downstairs all of Andy’s toys are watching TV. The toy soldiers are on the lookout for intruders and warn the other toys when Andy is coming upstairs. Then all the toys become lifeless again. UNTIL Woody is toy napped! All of the toys go on an adventure to find and rescue Woody. They rescue him, but when they return they find out Andy is all grown up and leaving for college soon. Andy’s mom asks him want he wants to do with all of his toys, he has a flashback of when he was younger playing with his toys. Although Andy is very attached to his toys, he knows he doesn’t need them. He donates them to a daycare where they are violated. The end.

I used Windows movie maker to create this. I watched each trailer a few times and then I began trying out different clips in different orders, I didn’t go in with a plan. I just figured out what I wanted and didn’t want as a created the mash up. I think it came out pretty well, there are a few areas where the editing skills could have been a bit sharper. But I am content with the way it came out.

I wonder why they have so many Toy Story movies, I like them all rolled together better!
