Feedback on our Film's Teaser Trailer

Sophie and I received some feedback from our target audience on the positives and negatives about our film's teaser trailer. Here is a summary of some of the comments we were given;-

• The teaser trailer looks very professional with it's credits and production labels.
• The crash is effective as the trigger event as it grabs the audience's attention in the first 25 seconds 
• All of the festivals shown at the beginning must mean that the film has had a positive response from its peers and successful if asked to be listed on all of the sets.
• The synchronisation of the trailer is very easy flowing.
• The POV shot of the mystery object getting buried is different to other stereotypical trailer traits and there is a visceral and intellectual tease to it.
• All of the camera angles and movements are relevant and effective to the story telling for the audience.
• The use of shadows reflects on the film noir genre and keeps the recurring theme throughout all of our products.
• The continuity of all of the credits with the smashed glass means that there is no confusion.
• The black out screen shot is too long and loses the attention of the audience watching.
• There is a mix of shots using both the characters and props which keeps the audience interested.
• There are several gaps for information were there could be some voice over from a character layered on clips.
• The scene of Anna looking for the file on Daniel is too long and withdraws the audience.
• The use of street/neon lights is unique and not seen in many other films and also links with film noir.

From this point I will now go on to edit/improve on the negative comments that were given about out trailer.


After I had the time to adjust the project a little, I finally have the overall finished teaser trailer for our film.
