Summary of film analysis

By analysing films I have found that as well as in the trailers, there are many tracking shots used to portray gymnastics. This shows how shots from the film are used in the trailer so I will need to ensure my trailer uses shots that would potentially be in my film.

I have also noticed how the voice overs in the trailers are used from the voice overs in the films, however only small parts of the voice overs are included in the trailer. From this I can conclude that the voice over in my trailer cannot be too long and cannot consist of unnecessary information. I will ensure to include a voice over which includes information that is necessary to the part of the trailer being shown.

The films also use a lot of close up shots which are conventional for the genre of drama and therefore I will make sure I use this type of shots in my trailer, particularly on my protagonist as I want the audience to empathise with this character.

In addition to the trailers, the films also use a lot of establishing shots to set scenes, and tracking shots to portray gymnastics therefore I am going to include these in my trailer. Another way gymnastics moves are portrayed in these films are by editing and using slow motion. This empathises the shots and makes them more interesting; therefore from this research I have decided to add some editing and slow motion to the shots consisting of gymnastics.

I have also noticed from analysing the films that non-diegetic music is a big contribution to portraying the atmosphere of the scene. I have concluded from this that I will include non-diegetic music in my trailer to help convey the atmosphere of the scene.
