For our film trailer we have decided that we are going to be making a thriller/action genre trailer, we didn't just make this decision quickly but instead we looked at different trailers that gave us an idea of what we wanted to achieve from our trailer. We wanted to be able to produce a trailer that would be eye-catching and something that would be able to hold an audiences attention while making them want to watch our film.
The first trailer we looked at and analysed was Taken.
Taken is a film about a standard family, mother, father and a daughter and when the daughter goes on a holiday with a friend she gets kidnapped by human traffickers, the main story line is that her father, played by Liam Neeson, has to track her down and rescue her. We were intrigued by the story line and with all members of our group actually seeing the film they knew what it was about. The trailer doesn't give too much away and is clearly addressing the audience that it is targeting, this is something that we would be looking to replicate.
The trailer uses a lot of dialogue and uses the tagline amongst many different shots so that it can get the story line across while also building a lot of suspense.
