I'm back!! And today I am going to talk about the trailer for 2001 A Space Odyssey.
2001: A Space Odyssey
I feel that this trailer allows you to see what type of film it is. The genre is defiantly science fiction and you can tell it is set in space, so this allows the viewers to see if will be interested in watching it or not. The trailer is 2 minuets 30 seconds long and in that time you see different parts of the film which I feel it a spoiler to the film because it shows you a lot of different scenes. The background music changes a lot during the short trailer, from very up-beat and loud music to slow and ballet style music.
In the trailer, you get to meet a lot of characters in a short space of time. I noticed while watching the trailer that there are only a few female characters, there are a lot of male ones. From what I can see, there are only 6 females in the trailer, there might be more in the actual film itself though.
There are also a lot of locations shown in the trailer which allows the viewers to know where it is set - most of the film is set on a spaceship. By showing a lot of locations in a trailer allows it to be clear that it is a sci-fi based film.
At the start of the trailer, there are very quick fade to black transitions which is really interesting and I feel it adds more tension to the movie. There is also a voice-over explaining a set of instructions which at first you don't know who is speaking and then it is revealed as someone on a screen explaining things while two men watch.
