Conventions of Trailers

Recapping from AS last year, these are the conventions of trailers:
  • The 'best bits'
  • Not necessarily in narrative order,
  • Title does not appear until the end,
  • Showcase the stars,
  • Voice-over- to tell a story and give credit information,
  • Visual images on screen, just to realise what we're seeing,
  • Synchronized sound and images,
  • Conversations between characters usually consist of one line each,
  • Music creates atmosphere,
  • Unusual angles use to show events or characters, 
  • Action is dispersed with credits,
  • Ending reaches to a climax.
