We understood the importance of the use of editing and camerawork
in our trailer, and also how it can help make us succeed. All conventional
trailers have smooth editing and also use a wide range of different editing
techniques but also camera shots to enhance the intensity and enjoyment of the
trailer. I believe that the different types of camera work along with the
different types of editing techniques used in our trailer enabled us to allow
the footage run smoothly and kept it flowing. This could be identified in our
scary place build up, where Dan and I were using the same type of scary/fear
combinations throughout the trailer but the different uses of fades/cuts which
contrasted the length of the shots made it feel different and more effective.
The use of the camera work that Dan and I used could really be identified by
the use of different camera angles in which we used. These different camera
angles added to the intensity feel of the trailer and the fast pace of the
sound/music/dialect.
I feel like that in our trailer is to an extent conventional
in regards to the editing and camerawork. We used a range of different quick
nappy shots that got the audience interested and to increase the intensity of our
trailer, along with the use of fades which can be conformed to other different
horror genre trailers, but we also consistently changed the camera angles and
made it less conventional to the genre, but also added a lot of effects as
shown by the screenshot below.
Here is a screenshot to show the use of our camera
work. We closed up on Dan's face and thought of this shot very carefully as there
is no movement in the background. It is a POV (Point of View) shot, just in formation with the
genre of the film. Furthermore, the camera is at a very low angle which shows
hints of the unconventional style.
