RESEARCH: Why Is a Film Trailer Made

    In our research of trailers the three trailers on the Teaching Trailers resource supplied by the FDA online we watched and analysed in order to further my understanding of why trailers are made and how they signal the film's genre and character.


The trailers that I viewed:


The Trailer for 'Hobbs & Shaw', rooted in it's past as part of the fast and furious franchise, looked to grab this returning audience with its emphasis on the high pace, high budget action complimented by elements of comedy. 

'Artemis Fowl' looks to grab a younger audience fascinated by the grand mystique of a fantasy world. The trailer depicts the main character as one left as a nameless 12-13 year old as to allow for this audience base to imagine themselves going through the world of 'Artemis Fowl'. It's special effects being highly impressive and attractive, the trailer looks to show these off promising audiences to expect more as they watch the film.

The Film trailer of The Mustang depicts more adult themes, depicting a coming-of-age tale related to the struggles of an adult moving through the world. With many adult men likely finding this relatable it further introduces fantastically beautiful settings which many will find highly enticing.
