The Strangers trailers

This trailer is similar to the kind of trailer that i am aiming to create. The way in which there are rhetorical questions, which compare to everday life, and also the shots where we can see things that the viewers where home. All of these things although they are simple really help to build tension, and this hows that it can even be done in a 2 minute trailer.

Inter-textuality:
-Soundtrack: builds tension, hight pitched, begings non diegetic, however continues on to diegetic sound.

The written words throughout the trailer, really appeal to the audience as they can relate to it. It states that the film is based on a true story which adds tension and yet adds excitement.

The cuts are quick although at certain they are uncomfortable long, quiet and still, with very little movement. In these shots, we are able to see things that the actress canot see.

The majority of thirller trailers, the tension is building all the way through and there is a climax at the end, althopugh this is the same in this trailer, the tension is biult and starts at teh very beginning which makes teh trailer that much more gripping. This meant that the genre of teh film is emmediately introduced and is very obvious. Also because of this, i would expect the target audience to be a much younger audience, roughly from 16-22 year-olds.
