Trailer Analysis
In the trailer of The Fast and Furious we can tell the genre of the film is action. We can tell through the fast paced music they use throughout the trailer, this music also has a heavy beat which you would find in action films. They have really short and fast paced scenes with straight cuts in most of them but in some they use cutting on action. Also the use of guns, cars and dramatic scenes suggests it is action, there is never nothing happening. There are car chases and continuous fights and races which suggests it is action.
There are three shot types that have been used in this trailer. Close ups at the start have been used a lot in this trailer, the effect this has on the audience is that it creates tension for the audience and keeps them watching the trailer all the way through. Towards the end of the trailer, like when the characters flips a car over another., they have used far shots to show all of the action in the scene. This excites the audience more and more as there is a lot of action happening in the scene which keeps the audience watching the trailer.
The editing used in the film creates a lot of tension for the audience and kept them watching the film. For example the use straight cuts at the start of the film and cutting on action creates tensions which excites the audience as they want to see the action. This action will excite the audience and keeps them watching he trailer so they can see it. They use fade in / fade out transitions which also creates tension. Towards the end they use a lot of cutting on action which excites the audience as something is happening all the time. The editing is very fast paced which excites the audience and is never slow except for the start which builds up tension.
The sound is used in the film to create tension for the audience. To start off with there is no music and all of the sound is diegetic except for a drum beat every time the scene changes. The fact there is little sound it builds up tension for the audience. The use of cars reving their engines and the beat every time the scene changes creates tension. As the music builds up towards halfway through the trailer it gets faster and faster, this matches to the pace of the trailer and builds up tension. The use of dietetic sounds like car noises and gun shots excite the audience and allow us to know the genre is action.
The Mise-En-Scene allows us to know about the film. The setting of the film is usually either in a poor neighbourhood or in a city. This suggests that the characters are from a poor background, they also have scruffy clothes and messed up hair which suggests the same thing. The setting and clothes on the character tell us that the film is set in the modern day. The facial expressions show us that the characters are usually angry or determined to do something. The characters body language is very up right which shows us he is determined. The positioning of the characters are usually far away from each other which suggests that they don't like each other.
The Lighting is usually very high-key and the colour is usually bright. This has been used to show us the action within the film and and to show us that something is always going on. If the lighting was always low-key and the colour was always dark it might bore the audience as nothing would be happening, so they use the high-key lighting and light colour to show the audience what is happening and to excite them.
