Genre specific research into teaser trailers


The Social Network Teaser Trailer:
·        First scene introduces the location at night at college using a long shot tracking in.
·        A lot of variety of clips edited together so it doesn’t feel we are watching a scene from the film. Gives the sense that these are clips that could be from any part of the film which makes it more appealing to watch.
·        Kanye West hip hop Track (upbeat tempo) played throughout the whole trailer to give this sense of coolness and a good feeling to the film.
·        Text in between scenes to help the viewers understand and keep them engaged with the trailer.
·        Sense of youth brought through the location of places (eg College, bedroom, party) and age of characters.
·        You can easily tell it is a Biography and Drama genre as it is about the story of one guy creating facebook.
·        Appealing to a teenage audience mainly to boys as the theme is about technology and money which boys are more interested about.
This is the only specific genre teaser trailer which is a modern biography drama genre in which I feel has inspired me to make a trailer from this type of genre. I feel interested by this particular one and wish to base mine inspired by this trailer. I really enjoyed this trailer because of it’s up to date message it brings with technology. The trailer was edited very well by picking correct scenes to go together and in order. Also the soundtrack worked well throughout it.
