research

Hi Georgia i have found this clip from the film Tropic Tunder. I like the way it pauses on the action to say the characters name. I think that it looks good with the background having lots of different colours and paterns. the negatives of this though is that you don't realy notice the names that come up with the clips.

This is the snatch clip from the trailer which has a simler way of introducting the actor. This clip changes the character to balck and white. the background is just one colour so the big bold white words stand out well.

research of other films

Brent and I have looked different genres to decide what film types we could have for our teaser trailer, magazine front cover and poster for the film.
The main genres that we looked at was horror, comedy and action.
We looked at a new comedy film called the hangover.

We also looked at the horror film Halloween http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LydgEmQWOp0

We both decided that we would prefer to make a action film because we are both interested in action films and we thought it would be the best to make due to other film trailers we have looked at.
