film trailers

They inspire to watch or not watch films, they are just as important as the quality of the film itself, sometimes I think they are actually better.

The work that is put into them, music, cinematography, choosing the right clips etc.. is vital, and can be so effective.
It's a chance to use music with impact, good photography and phrases/words that attack and hit the right spots.
The whole package of a film trailer is something I think is good.



















- first film trailer came out in November 1913, USA
- over 10 billion watched annually online
- consisted of various key scenes from the film being advertised, often augmented with large, descriptive text describing the story, and an underscore generally pulled from studio music libraries. Most trailers had some form of narration and those that did featured stentorian(greek loud voices) voices.
-In the early 1960s, the face of motion picture trailers changed. Textless, montage trailers and quick-editing became popular
