Film Trailer ideas

Jak made a diagram of some ideas that we previously had for our film trailer.




Our ideas ranged from horrors to comedies and even some hybrid genre ideas came to our attention.

Jak summarized these ideas below.

1. Thriller - During the trailer we would want to outline the plot, introduce the characters and include short action sequences. The idea that we has was that a mass serial killer is on the loose and has taken some school students. Throughout the trailer we would plan on having torture scenes, police investigation, flashbacks, montage scenes.
2. Horror - During the trailer we would have jump scares, comedic horror and over the top reactions. We would base our idea on Halloween night where one country is entrapped and no-body can escape. Peoples fears will come to life, however, throughout the trailer we would follow two different groups (elderly, youth). This is what would provide the comedic aspect as we would present the teenagers as more scared and petrified.
3. Action - During an action trailer their would be lots of fast action shots compiled together, an antagonist vs. protagonist and a female heroine. Our idea was that an innocent school teenager unfortunately witnesses something he shouldn't have and this causes a major downfall in his life. The teenager tries to seek help but matters only get worse. ]
4. Comedy - Teenager based - crude comedy. Our idea was to have a group of friends reminisce about a girl they liked in Junior school, she was the most popular girl in school. However, many years later this group of friends see this girl at a gaming convention and become close friends with the girl. However, due to this relationship the group of boys are seen doing stuff to impress her and arguing with their friends.
