Trailer Analysis

Whilst looking a trailers which portray affairs, a common transition used to depict the affair was 'fade to black' this was very effective as it almost confined the mystery in their actions and made the affair look more secretive and sophisticated, in our trailer we will be using fade to black as it will give that scene more sophistication as it could be soon a comedic way because it is unbelievable, the trailers also used fast paste cuts to fade to black to speed the scene up and to make it look more serious, we will be using this in are trailer. 


This trailer uses fast paste fade to blacks which will make the audience focus on the scene more as it is harder to discern exactly what is happening. Especially if the relationship between the two characters is a mystery, there is only so much the narrative revealed about the characters the only enigma codes revealed where about the affair. This was effective regarding this trailer as it will hook the audience making them think what else happens? And how exactly did this relationship develop? 



This trailer is very successful in illustrating a teacher and students affair as they use interesting media language throughout the narrative, the high key lighting used to show the happiness in the friendship and then the low key lighting and dark mise en scence to show the developing affair and fast cut fade to blacks to show the powerful impact of the affair, i think the diegetic sound used was very effective as it made the affair more epic.
