LATEST ACTION ADVENTURE TRAILERS

Here are some of the latest Action Adventure Trailers - good to view but be warned, they are very CGI (Computer Generated Images) heavy so may not be a particularly good guide to what you should be trying to create.

However, you could think about the planning of the trailer, the way narrative is drip fed to us through the images, dialogue and sound effects. How people and places are represented and how the audience is directly targeted.

I particularly like the first one - Super 8 as it is clearly aimed at a family audience. Think about whose POV we get in each of the trailers and how this helps us to identify the audience. Also make a note of who the Producers, Directors and Executive Producers are. Then look up what else they have done.

Also note the Lego video game advert which I have put in to get you to think about how important Marketing across different media platforms is. The game helping to advertise the Film franchise. And the the film helping to sell the game and also Lego toys. You may get a question which asks you to think about this.
