Different types of shots used in a film trailer of our production

While creating the trailer we have came across many different shots which would help us establish the actual genre and make

it easier for the audience to be able to recognise it.

This is an example of high angle shot when the protagonist sleeps however we can already see a grimace on her face which informs the audience of the bad presentiment she is having relating to the oncoming danger.

The high angle shot is also very typical when a n innocent character is to be introduced in the trailer. As she is the main character of our trailer and she will be the one affected by the antagonist it is very important for the audience to find relation between those two characters and understand how they affect each other.

This is an example of a long shot used in our trailer. This shot presents the antagonist acting very lost and confused in a dark light therefore, it informs the audience that she is the danger waiting for the others . Nevertheless, it also informs the audience of the set in location- showing different places not only the house where the main scenes are set.

The lighting used in this shot is very typical for horror genre because it creates an atmosphere of impending doom.

The high angle shot helps to create direct eye contact between the ghost and the viewer to help make them feel more immersed in the trailer. The dark lighting makes he scene more ominous and makes the ghost seem more intimidating.
