Action Trailer Analysis - Transformers


As the trailer starts there is music in the background that creates tension. There is a close up of the main character so that the audience become familiar with him. as the trailer continues there is a narrative that tells a little bit about the story and the relationship between the main character and the car. there is a long shot that allows the audience to see this. There are fades to black and the tittles appear quickly on the screen and flicker, this adds further tension to the audience. after the titles the music stops and there are jump cuts of different parts of the film, all of these clips fade to black quickly. there are lots of explosions at the begging which tells the audience from the beginning that it is going to be an action film. there are lots of high and low Angle shots which establish authority in the trailer. this allows the audience to know more about the characters. inter titles appear throughout the trailer, showing the audience when the film will be and making them more excited with phrases such as 'most have come to destroy us', 'some have come to protect us' the music builds up again towards the end of the trailer, this adds to the audience excitement of the film and the music becomes more fast paced towards the end, this builds further excitement towards the end, this will grab the audience and make them remember the film. the clips are also very short which adds to the faced paced trailer, this is stereotypical of an action trailer.
