In the trailer for ‘I Spit on your Grave’, we are told the name of the film at the end of the clip. They have done this as people will have to watch the whole clip before knowing the name of the film. Doing this draws people into the trailer and will then have an idea of what the film is about.
In the trailer we are not told who is in the film, this is because there are no big actors who are in the film that people would recognise.
The information given in ‘I Spit on your Grave’ trailer is given the same way throughout the whole trailer. It is on a dark background, this symbolises a creepy unaware atmosphere. The writing flashes on this white background, this stands out and also fits in with the rest of the trailer as there are flashing scenes in the clips.
In the trailer we see a girl been watched, this gets the audience thinking as they do not know what is going to happen next. We also see fighting in the trailer, this shows us that the girl has been kidnaped and she is fighting to get away. This draws watchers in to the trailer as they will want to know the outcome of the film- if she gets away etc. As you do not find this out in the trailer people are more likely to go and see the film when it comes out. This is what the film makers want as they are making money.
The sound in the trailer is firstly diegetic sound. The sound of creaking doors and screams shows that the film is a horror film as we can hear fear in the girls voice and also her crying. There is then an up-beat tempo when she has been kidnaped, this upbeat music shows her trying to get away from the man who has taken her. This music draws the watcher in and will want to know the outcome of the horror film.
There is a voice over in this trailer, the voice of the man talking is suppose to be the man who has taken the girl, you know this because what he is saying. The man has a low deep voice, this fits in with the horror theme as it comes across creepy.
The trailer begins with a series of long clips, they speed up throughout the trailer as the man kidnaps the girl and when the horror starts in the trailer. They do this in this trailer as in most horror films it draws the views in as they get excited to know what will happen and this draws them in, as they do not know the full outcome they will want to go and see it when it comes out. The speed through the trailer does alter, it starts of slow (equilibrum) then gets faster through the middle of the trailer (disequilibrium).
The information given is words that symbolise fear and horror ‘some crimes are so brutal that if your survive your only option is revenge, show no mercy’. This information is given once the girl has been kidnaped. The information is given at different stages of the trailer, e.g. when the girl is trying to get away the information given is, ‘some crimes are so brutal’ this shows that the girl is getting attacked badly. When the girl takes control of the situation and tortures the man the information given is, ‘your only option is revenge’. This is given at this point of the trailer as the girl is attacking the man and getting revenge.
The type of audience this trailer is aimed at is people above the age of 18, i think this as the girl who is attacked is a normal girl who is of this age range doing things normal people do until she is attacked. As she is at home alone people can link to this.
