My Evaluation

In what ways does your media product use, develop challenge or challenge forms and convention of real media products ? Teaser trailer Teaser trailers make the audience aware of a new film that is due to be released they are shorter than a standard trailer and usually provide less information. They pique the interest of the audience and provide a minimal amount from the film in order to ‘tease’ the audience My chosen genre was action. Action films and following my research into action teaser trailers, I decided to use the conventions and forms typically found in films of this genre in my teaser trailer as they were effective in portraying the story, mood/tone and genre. Skyfall teaser trailer My teaser trailer Insert link of my teaser trailer In the Skyfall teaser trailer the main protagonist is seen in most of the scenes, many of which involve chase scenes and conflict, the main character who is predominately male in action films is key to the film and he is often portrayed as a heroic figure. This is a convention that I used in my teaser trailer as the plot centred around a male agent who is present in most of the chase scenes. The target audience of my teaser trailer was made up males whom of which make up the majority of those who enjoy watching action films, therefore i noted the importance of incorporating various element such as sound, costume and mise en scene in my teaser trailer that would appeal to the male audience. In my teaser trailer I used different variations of up-tempo music to accompany the action scenes and to add to the pace and movement of the trailer. Most action teaser trailer use various amounts of short and quick scenes which create anticipation and a sense of urgency this Is evident in both the Skyfall and Total Recall teaser trailer and it is a technique that I used in my trailer as used various cuts and transitions into different scenes.
