Now that we have begun the A2 media course we have come upon our first task. This is to find out what a teaser trailer is and the typical conventions of a teaser trailer.
So a teaser trailer is:
- Often 30-80 seconds long.
- Not much information is given away during the teaser trailer the main reason being that they have not finished filming the footage or they are still editing. Sometimes they don't even use footage that ends up in the actual final film.
- A teaser trailer is usually made to create a certain degree of hype about the film..
- Teaser trailers often use quick cut shots and only use limited dialogue.
- Teaser trailers reveal the following
- The genre.
- Release date.
- Target audience the film is aimed at.
- A teaser trailer is often shown in a non-sequential order. The main reason is that the production company do not want to give away too much detail about the film and they want to create more of an immersive viewing experience for the viewer when they watch the final film.
To have a more detailed understanding in teaser trailers I have decided to analyse a few. Therefore I will be gaining more experience in analysing media clips.
