FILM MAKING

We look at the trailer genre and discuss how its conventions (= what elements are usually in trailers).

  • editing is not continuity editing (as the narrative arc is long)
  • inter titles between clips (= writing) about the director, actors, awards, pull quotes
  • additional inter titles explain the narrative (THOSE WHO HAVE SURVIVED / LIVE BY ONE RULE / NEVER MAKE A SOUND
  • sound track build to the climax
  • release date
  • film title

We watch A Quiet Place as a possible model for us to copy (=make a swede)
