Taken Trailer - Action Drama



This is the trailer for an action drama that is the same genre as what my trailer is going to be. At the beginning, there is a number of jump cuts which adds tension into the trailer. It allows the reader to get glimpses of what is going to be in the film, adding suspense of what to come in the film. The camera shots that are most common is two shots, between the mother and daughter, the parents and the daughter with her friend. This introduces the characters and their close relationship. An effect used in this trailer, splits the screen into two parts, for a conversation, also known as a split screen. The jump cuts are very short, with just glimpses of the action in the film. In my trailer, i will try to get short glimpses of the main action in the film, that will leave the audience in suspense, so much that they will go out and watch the film. Then there is a fast forward part of the trailer. This just shows alot of action, in fast cuts, so you cannot see exactly what is going on, but creates a panic atmosphere. There is a lot of violence, and action shown, which excites the audience into why this is happening. The sounds in the trailer create alot of tension, making the audience almost scared but anticipating on what is going to happen.
