This trailer has fairly typical aspects , it opens with a production logo and then continues into a fairly obscure montage, with a voice over. This ensures that the audience are intrigued by the various enigmas presented, as it is the teaser for a sequel film it also features various intertextual references to the previous films which will not be relevant to my final production. The name of the film, along with when it will be in cinemas is placed at the end in a bold capitalised font. Another aspect that seems very typical amongst teaser trailers is the common short length of around 1 minute, which is something i should aim to apply to my own blog...

Teaser trailer
Genre: Thriller
Plot: The concept of my teaser trailer would be based around a film in which a group of people are being murdered one by one for a reason which they are not aware of. These people are all connected to each other but are not aware of the reason why.
Teaser: The concept for the teaser trailer would take place in a dark small office room, there is a desk, a notice board, a phone and a few items on the desk. Cutting to the notice board it is ladened with documents and pictures of a variatey of themes, along with words and arrows drawn on paper amongst them. There is a phone ringing quietly in the background whilst soft music plays. The camera moves in for close ups of the notice board, showing faces, which cut to small clips of seemingly random footage, the camera highlights arrows and words by having extreme close ups, it also its seemingly obvious that there are red drops and finger prints on some documents connoting blood. The camera cuts to the phone as it goes through to answer phone, the beep being clear but the voice and what its saying however being far less audible. As the camera continues over the notice board, its passes over more disturbing messages. The phone becomes louder as the person expresses the need to escape or something on similar lines. The phone then disconects. The camera cuts too a high shot of the desk and pans along , as the music increases in tension and volume, panning across a phone , some papers and pens , until it reaches a slumped over body across the desk, it cuts too a long shot, high angle from the corner of the room where the audience can see a bload soaked shirt and open draws that have been searched through .
Requirements;
At least five actors
A small office
A notice board
Camera
Tripod and possibly a wall mount
