Shooter Fan Movie Trailer

This trailer opens with an image with the Paramount trade mark sign. We then get an immediate establishing shot to clearly distinguish the location of the film. We are sent straight into a busy location that gives us a sense that we are in a busy city in America. The next few shots are cut with fast editing and we further establish that we are within a busy city.

We get a very fast series of editing that shows us mixed locations but with a lot of action, enforcing the genre of film. We get different locations in this section including a warehouse, a riverbank and busy city roads. There are also several clips showing the main character and his sidekick at war seeming to be in Iraq or Afghanistan. This further enforces action to the viewers and tells us that Mark Whalberg was a sniper in the war. All of these locations show the main character Mark Whalberg getting beat up, shit and in a constant fight for survival. But as we have seen he is a sniper. So the next section of shots, we see Mark Whalberg in his primary location fighting back. We see him in forests, on mountains and in other secretive places sniping people from a distance. This shows our main character fighting back and again enforces the genre of action. This brawl continues for a long period of the trailer and we see Mark Whalberg in his primary status. Its almost as if he has created another war by the amount of action we see and the locations we are shown.

The last location we are shown is Mark Whalberg in an orange prison suit trying to prove himself in some kind of court. He has his sniper with him that shows the court is trusting him. This trailer uses many different locations to emphasise the amount of action that the film encages.

Superbad New International Trailer (Characters)

There are several different characters that appear in the Superbad film trailer. The first two characters we come across are Seth and Evan. We immediately tell that Seth is going the be the main funny character due to his clothing and his image. He has funny hair, clothing and an all over funny attitude is what we can see. Whereas, we can tell Evan is a more serious character by the use of geeky clothing and serious facial expressions. We can tell that Evan has a crush on a girl when we see a point of view shot that shows him looking at her breasts. This is another character that we get involved with and we learn that she becomes quite a main part of Evans life within the film.

Our last main character is then shown in the trailer as we immediately take him as another funny, joking type of person. This is again related to his image with a funny look to him and his expressions give off humor. We learn from the trailer that his name is Fogel. Shortly after, we see a series of clips of our three main characters doing funny things where we distinguish that these three ,Seth, Evan and Fogel are good friends.

Next we are shown some more characters who play a big role in this film. These are the girls that Seth, Evan and Fogel try to buy alcohol for as the girls have a party. We can tell that the boys are trying to get in their good books by them doing this. Also at 1.04 we are introduced to some characters who are two policemen. We can tell that these are a big part of the film due to the series of clips that follow their appearance with Fogel. We establish these policemen as more main characters. At this point, all of our main characters have been introduced by the trailer makers and the fast series of clips show their attitudes within the film. Again, Seth has a funny attitude, Evan is continuing his serious appearance and Fogel is being a 'nutcase' with the two policemen. We also establish from these clips that the policemen have a very comical way within this film.

The Grudge Official Trailer (First Detailed Analysis)

The first horror movie trailer in which i analysed is the official trailer, the Grudge.

to start with the beginning of the movie trailer to this movie starts with creepy non-diagetic music and then it goes from shot to shot with the same slow and creepy atmosphere, the music then stops and it goes from short shots to the different locations of the movie to tell the story.

The first shot which shows the location is of a town which is a master shot which goes into another master shot with the camera held from a high angle to a lot of people walking on a street and to a house which then switches to text which tells parts of the stories with also the same font, non diagetic music and colours which builds up tension to the audience which are watching it to see what the movie is going to be about, this then cuts to another shot of a woman in a house looking around looking scared and then there is screaming from inside the house which also builds up a lot of tension. following this, the non diagetic music gets faster and faster which also builds up tension following a mixture of very fast shots in a dark location. after these shots it then goes back to text which tells another part of the story, all of these shots including the text starts off from the beginning with a normal and ordinary day with a lot of people on the streets, which then turns to a house and shows within the house that it is dark and creepy which is followed by the type of text which is shown. this then is all changed as it shows the main character which looks always a bit scared and the lighting at this time is dark and gloomy and also the location is like this as she arrives in the house. the trailer stops from being slow shots once again to going very fast again, the lighting is still dark and the location stays the same with the same people. when the trailer ends it finishes with the mis-en-scene being even darker and has much slower music and ends with the title and the credits with a loud noise, it also asks the audience a question which builds up tension to watch it.
