Film Trailer Analysis
Film Trailer ♯1: Tower Block * The trailer introduces the main characters to us by making them appear numerous which suggests that they are important in the movie * The plot and genre are displayed through the actions of the characters, the music/audio used and the scenery that the movie is shot in * The information that the trailer gives us is that the movie begins from bad to worse and gradually worsens as the locations are also gradually getting smaller * The lighting in the trailer is rather dim and gradually gets darker until they are actually in the dark which suggests that something bad is going to happen. The editing of the trailer also compliments the music/audio used because the trailer slowly gets more tense which suits the music/audio used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtU9NB3fh_4
Film Trailer ♯2: Safe Haven * The characters are introduced in the trailer by appearing several
times which tell us that they are an important character within the movie * The plot and genre are displayed through the several montages which show us that the main characters life is rather chaotic and more * The information given to us about the movie in the trailer is that the main character is constantly trying to find a place where she can live in peace without police or others chasing after her * The lighting in the beginning of the trailer is rather dark as it was at night but as it time goes by, it gradually gets lighter which can suggest that the burden that she has been holding has been lifted off her shoulders which suits the music/audio used as it represents her feelings/situation

Film Trailer ♯3: Dora the Explorer
* The main character is introduced in the trailer as when they appear, they pay attention to their attire in great detail which can suggest that they are very important in the movie * The information that it gives us is that the trailer gradually becomes more violent whilst at the same time containing innocent aspects of the main character * The lighting in the trailer alternates from light to dark very often to represent the contrast of negativity and the positivity which the music/audio tries the match with the atmosphere http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnpTcrtsN3U
