How to Plan a Trailer
Planning
a Trailer
- Trailers use Long shots at the start to establish character and setting.
- Fades to black that suggest shifts in time.
- Transitions/cuts with by booming SFX build tension.
- Transition screens place significant text on screen, images and shots before/after should echo the text.
- Short shots and quick cuts of some of the most exciting moments from the film, the ‘events’ that lead to resolution but not necessarily in chronological order.
- Resolution should be left out, viewers left guessing.
- Music should build to a crescendo.
- Sudden moments of quiet and silence will have impact on mood and pace.
- The voiceover and text on screen will most likely feature the film’s USP, its unique selling point.
- The USP is anything that would make people want to see your film over any other films currently released. This could be at the beginning or end of your trailer.
Award screens may be put before the trailer or after the title.

Representation
Representation
What is Representation?
Representation is the way the media portrays the way we see things. the media re-present the world to us n a different way. they may show us what something actually is but then change it to what it should be. Representation is everywhere and the media change it all the time.
Our Characters
The Bad Guy: in our movie the bad guy in the film will be represented as a mysterious, dark way. it will be a stereotypical bad guy in a horror movie she will always be wearing black or very dark colours in a cloak like form. You will rarely see her face or hear her speak. her action will be very stereotypical comes at the main character with a knife or a weapon. she will live in 8either a dark abandoned house or live in a normal house but you only ever see him in the basement where he keeps his victims.
The Main Character: the main character also known as the good guy will be first seen as your typical teenage girl will have long blonde , tall. Hangs out with her friends, gossips normal teen girl stuff. she will start wearing trendy clothing have a London accent, always abbreviates words. Then when she gets into trouble with the killer we start to see her change. instead of wearing trendy clothes she starts to wear a baggy jumper and jeans. becomes very brave and fights. get seen as a hero. lives in a small town just outside the city in a small house. has a normal life with her friend and family.
The Main Characters Friends: we still haven't decided if the friends are going to be a big main part in the movie however they are seen regularly with the main character there will be a varity of different girls at least 4 or 5 we will see them in school uniform. They all have the same personality as our main character. they will all hang out together all the time having fun, gossipping etc. they will have handbags and mobile phones on them.very stereotypical teenage girls. they all live in separate house but all live around 10 minuets away from each other. Easy walking distance.
The Next Victim: coming to the end the main character thinks she has escaped that he is now gone but she not. she has travelled far away and has captured a new girl. this victim will only be seen near the end. you will only see her eyes and hear here panting in complete silence then as she screams the screen will go black.
Then the title will slowly appear and disappear and the date will slowly appear and disappear.
