TV Trailer

This is a TV trailer that we created for our documentary film.

 

 

This TV trailer that we created was used as a way of advertising our documentary in a visual way other than staring at posters and magazine covers, because it is more likely to engage the audience into what we are actually trying to discover. We do this by including quick cuts to all the different locations we visited like Coventry Transport Museum, to give the audience an idea of what the documentary style will look like. However we did include some shots that were intended for the final version of the documentary but later decided we weren't going to edit in, so we used this extra footage for the TV trailer, and some of them worked better in a trailer format as they are different angled shots of moving cars, which work well with quick cuts and non-diegetic music in the background.

Between some of the shots we included the titles: "Beauty" "History" and "Power" as this represents the shots that followed it, which tells the audience this is what the documentary includes throughout the film.
