We find out at the end of the trailer the name of the film this is because it makes you watch the whole of it, it also creates a sense of mystery because you have no idea what the film is called or anything about it.
Why are we told who is staring in the film and how is this information given to us? Why?
No, this is because the actors are probably unknown so the viewers will not be interested in who the actors are as there are no a listers to aid the films ratings so they therefore rely on the reputation of paranormal activity 1 and the ratings from that and the views about it.
What type of action from the film do we see?
The type of action within the trailer is not the conventional type you normally see its not car chases, violent or gore. It focuses on more the fact that the characters are filming the actions themselves creating a sense of realism.
What clues does the music give us as to what type of film the trailer is advertising?
There is no music in the trailer, maybe this is because it is more mysterious if there is no actual music and it again adds to the sense of realism. Anything you hear is diegetic sound and this is what creates the tension.
Does the trailer come with a voice over and if so, what ca you tell about the voice being used?
There is no dialogue in the trailer and we don’t meet the characters which again creates a sense of mystery and doesn’t give away to much of the narrative.
How does the speed of what we see compare to watching a clip from a film? Why is this?
The different shots are set in real time, but the editing itself has increased in rapidity. Its shot in real time to reflect the realism of the film but the edits are quick to create excitement for the audience.
What information are we given about the film?
The information given is quite blurred as we are not sure what happens, because its a sequel the audience are aware of what happened in the first film but no narrative is given away in the trailer so we are left unsure with only an idea that it could be about disappearance, also actors names are not given as they are unknown.
What type of audience is the trailer aimed at? How can you tell?
The trailer is aimed at around 15 and above, this is because the film was given a certificate of 15.
Theatrical Trailer
The theatrical trailer was not longer than the teaser trailer, this is because the teaser trailer was not necessarily needed because the audience already know an idea of what to expect because of the last film and they do not to be enticed because of the films existing reputation.
