Textual Analysis of Trailer

I completed a textual analysis of my trailer in terms of shot types, editing, sound and mise en scene. In my research I looked a shot types used in existing horror films (here is a link to the post) and used them in my own, as seen above.

In lessons and at home I have been working on my evaluation questions and I plan on answering them using various different media such as sliderocket, youtube and scribd.

I have been working on editing and finalising my trailer to upload it to Youtube and I have almost completed my ancillary products to accompany the trailer promotion.

Progress Update

After showing various members of my target group a draft of my trailer, I have decided to make certain changes. I will ensure I use shots that were particularly effective repeatedly throughout to create a motif for the film as well as only shortly revealing a shot of the antagonist to keep the audience intrigued and wanting to know more. I will also use effects on shots to ensure there is a constant throughout to keep the audience's attention.
