I like how the trailer gets faster and faster during the end, it creates more suspense and impact.

The lovely Bones Trailer


The Lovely Bones (2009)
USA
Director - Peter Jackson




This film was originally a book. The story is narrated by a girl who was murdered by her neighbour. She tells the story of how she moves on to heaven and how her family deal with the grief.


I like how this trailer gets darker and more haunting and as it reaches the end the music becomes more powerful and the scenes are faster paced, creating fear and tension. I like how the trailer does this to attract its audience.


Peter Jackson the director uses the main character Susie Salmon as the voice over for the trailer. I want to use this idea in my trailer and I think it is useful to create a relationship between the audience and the main character in the trailer.

Ideas

I was really inspired by 4321 and I want to create a storyline around a group of friends. I was thinking about doing the same thing by telling each persons story. I'm not sure what genre I want to focus on but I want the film to be based around this one girl in the group who has disappeared and how the group cope and try to find her unravelling more than they bargained for during the journey. I want to film around the Hastings area and create a sort of home made film look.

4321

4321

Directors: Noel Clarke, Mark Davis

Writer: Noel Clarke

Country British

Year 2010

4 Girls, 3 Days, 2 Cities, 1 Chance.....

This film is about 4 friends all female who get caught up in a diamond heist after finding a bag of diamonds in a packet on pringles. This film is made by telling each indidual story of the girls, which all ties together at the end. This is a heart racing and very clever film. I get a lot of inspiration by how this film is composed. This film represents female enpowerment and friendship.


Production Co: Unstoppable Entertainment, Retro-Juice Production, Atlantic Swiss.

I might look at these production companies and see what other films they do and whether they only produce british films.
