After scowering Youtube for Trailer inspiration..



On Youtube, i have come across many different types of A2 media trailers. Loads of great examples and a lot of rather terrible ones. At the minute, I am not too sure of the genre i want for my Trailer.. i am stuck between whether to choose a Rom-Com or a Horror. They are both the best types of films, well in my opinion.

Anyway here are some of the trailers i have just watched and have stood out:

The first one being 'BELIEVE', which is a horror trailer. From this trailer, i liked the dramatic music at the beginning and the feeling it gives out to the audience when the child starts to hum/sing.
 
 
The next one is called 'Abducted', and this one stood out because, the story line was clear and also the there is a fight scene when the abductor is punching a kicking a man, and the sound effects were really good and it looked really realistic.
 
 
I then came across a Romantic Comedy which makes me giggle, its called, 'Going Nowhere'. What really stands out to me is the music and the text and the way it comes across the screen as well as the colour choice. Its all round a classic looking Rom-com with it being relateable and funny.

 

The next youtube video i watched was an A-level short film, which I'm watching again currently, i find so interesting. I said how i wanted to base my trailer on a Rom-com or a horror, well this one is slightly different and its a short film about a boy who has agoraphobia. It is called, 'Bad timing'. It drew me in because it was tensionous and i wanted to know what would happen to him at the end. The music is also very fitting to the short film.
 
 
The next trailer is called, 'High school Detention Musical', it is a comedy. It is one of the terrible trailers.. I am cringing. I got the story line but it was due to my common sense as is wasn't portrayed clearly. I like the idea but it was too cheesy.
 
 
Lastly, I really like this one comedy called, 'Reset' Its slight like the film,'Bruce Almighty' to the extent of a man being singled out to god. I think the use of music has been used in such a great way for example at the beginning when he falls asleep and the music slows down and then abruptly stops.
 
 




So after hard deliberation, i think I'm stuck between whether to do a horror or a Rom-com. Its difficult to find examples of them that are of good quality because most of them are either really serious and not in that genre or aren't taken very seriously, ie being a comedy.
