Conventions of Teaser Trailers

Casino Royale


The next teaser trailer I am looking at is Casino Royale.

  • The trailer starts with the showing of the production and distribution of the film.
  • There is talking over the shots at the start of the trailer.
  • The underscore starts off slow, then as the trailer goes on it builds up in volume and tempo.
  • The shots are quick changing, especially as the music's tempo goes up. This is because, like Inception, the change in shots is in time with the music.
  • The shots are of the main aspect of James Bond (e.g. girls, guns and explosions).
  • There is a release date and the production/distribution at the end of the trailer.
  • The music comes to a sudden end, at the end of the trailer.

    Oscar - this is fine but you might find it easier to create a list of the conventions of teaser trailers by first highlighting the differences between teasers and conventional theatrical trailers. Choose two films that have a teaser and a theatrical trailer and compare the similarities and differences.
