Golden Trailer Awards

The genre I will be looking for when I am producing my film trailer for A2 Media Studies will most likely be Horror. This is because I feel that this genre has more possibilities for me and my group to explore when shooting and editing, compared to the other genres in film. As shown in the previous post, the winner of the Golden Trailer Awards for Best Horror was 'The Devil Inside', produced by Paramount Pictures. This film trailer contains a lot of suspense in order to keep the viewer interested whilst also scared, depending on whether the viewer is a fan of horror films. Multiple still frames of scenes that take place later in the film are shown in order to show the extent of fear that the viewer may generate whilst watching the film whilst still not revealing too much and only previewing the basic storyline and what the film is all about. At the end of the trailer, most horror trailers show one last frame, still or very short; which will ineveitably be a scary scene from the film. This is done with this film trailer, showing the same still frame that was shown at the beginning, keeping the constant suspense ongoing and ending with the title 'Coming Soon'.
