Name of film: Cloverfield Year
Released: 2008
Genre of Trailer: Horror Mark
after viewing: 9/10
The trailer starts at a party which is interrupted by strange
explosions going on outside, the whole of the party rushes outside to see what
is going on when they see the head of the statue of liberty tumbling down the
street, with lots of explosions still going on.
Things that I found positive within this trailer were the use
of handheld camera as it made the trailer more jumpy, the trailer doesn’t
reveal much of the plot and leaves the spectator wanting to know what’s next. I
also liked the use of collision cutting as the trailer transforms from a jolly
party atmosphere to ‘jerky’ shots of explosion. I think that an interesting
scene was chosen for this ‘scene trailer’ and it is also ideal for its target
audience of 18-25 year olds.
However a couple aspects which I thought were possibly
unsuccessful were; including a whole scene from the film as that could be could be risky, and also some people may be
put off because handheld camera is used.
