Analysis of a foreign language trailer


The Trailer starts with a build up of dramatic music which gets louder and more intense throughout the trailer building up to an Climax, This build up is a connotation of an Action Thriller, it builds suspense and keeps you on edge and signifies somethings going to happen. The trailer starts with a masked biker which brings an element of unknown, when the masked is removed we see an attractive woman this subverts to the audiences expectations and the attractive woman is stereotypical to the thriller genre as it attracts male audiences and brings a naive victim into the film. The use of fire and explosions connotates action and the fast pace cutting signifies its going to be fast and thrilling another connotation of the thriller genre. The dead body signifies death which is stereotypical to thrillers as usually there is death and action followed by the death, the terror as the girls screams shows its going to be scary and the blood on her face followed by smashing glass and the use of guns shows violence the use of weapons also signifies its part of the thriller genre. The close ups of the different characters also show us they are important to the film and the iscolated landscapes shows there is an element of chase and adventure to find what they want, this is stereotypical to give the thriller excitement and a tense element for the audience.
