Whereas a horror film’s music will be dark, ghostly and played by an orchestra to devise a dramatic mood. Therefore, if the audience is watching a comedy the music will be light-hearted, bouncy and usually played by a pop group to establish the cheerful mood. The music has to be appropriate to the film to create that certain atmosphere. The composition of a trailer is very important as it sets the atmosphere and emphasises the genre of any film. Then, I will discuss these but focusing on Casino Royale and effect they create for the viewers. I will be discussing all features of a film trailer such as the music, camera angles and effects. The genre of a film means what type of film it is, e.g. I will center on the Casino Royale trailer which is in the action genre, but, all trailers in this genre have similar aspects. It also has to persuade the audience to see the actual film and therefore make money for the film industry.
The trailer of a film has to help the audience understand what the film is about, without giving the whole film away. How does Casino Royale reflect the Media of Trailers?Ī trailer has to show an audience they will see a particular genre of film.
