-I have done many things in my trailer to follow tradition of the other horror movie trailers that are on the market.
-The green screen creates a professional feel to the beginning of the trailer.
- The distribution and production logos are also at the beginning to make a professional feel also.
- The fading in and out creates tension to the trailer and also prolongs the images.
- I have used the first shot as the girls packing for the camping trip to open the trailer for example opening the scene.
-The first couple of shots also show the location of the trailer.
-The first few shots show the girls having a good time walking together and so on
- It all goes wrong when Leanne goes and walks towards the woods
-When this is happening the tempo on the music gets faster to build up the tension.
- The zoom on Leanne also creates tension and makes the audience intrigued on what is going to happen.
-The woods creates a horror feel to the movie which links in the genre of the trailer
- This links with someone walking through the woods alone creating the impression of loneliness
