This trailer is very effective and does its job extreamly well. I have already seen this film, so i know what to expect and the trailer makes alot of sense to me, but i think that through the eyes of someone who is yet to see this film, the trailer creates a sense of tention and confusion which would attract them instantly and intise them into watching the film. The genre of the film is obvious within the first few seconds of the trailer. It opens with a boat crossing the water amongst a dark sky and fog, which give a sense of confusion and mystery, as if the boat is entering the unknown or entering foreign ground. The time period is obvious to the viewer also, through the costume of the charatcers, there dressed in authentic police or federal agents outfits, which maybe relates to American Police in the1950's.

Matthew, I think your trailer idea is interesting, but it needs a bit more development to ensure that it truly is original and subverts the genre. In examining your blog, you are missing the trailer analyis, please post this. We have also spent time looking at the difference between AS and A2 blogs, please make sure this is reflected in your work, as currently your depth of analysis is a little lacking. It should be backed up with screen shots, examples and a filmography. Please look at the A2 blog examples on the KESH Media A2 Hub.
