Today i have looked at documentarys on various subjects, i have found with a lot of documentarys they are trying to uncover something, educate its audience in an interesting way showing pros and cons of its genre.
There are various documentarys on..
moterbikes
cars
coins
diseases
fashion
anything you could imagine.
They often contain a voiceover, someone talking about the facts of the subject, also they do many interviews talking to various diffrent people related to your genre of your documentarys finding different opinions to show make contraversy and diffrent sides to the genre and what you are talking about. Going into depth within the genre splitting up into sections, often containing alot of repition, jumping from one subject in the genre to the next.

Trailer - what makes a trailer
Today i have done some research into trailers exploring what consists of them and when they are realeased ect i learned...
. You have got to have titles in a trailer also logos of the production companies ect amd maybe the film will have a tag line included in the titles.
. Purpose of a trailer- its is a marketing campaign, distrubuting the film effectivly teasing the audience.
. A trailer is shown far enough in advance to generate excitement for the release date but mpt so they forget about it. Timing is important, teaser trailers come out way before the release date and full version trailers come out about 3 months before the release date which is included in the titles of the trailer.
. Trailers are no mini-films they have got easy recoognisable conventions, designed to capture your attention and hold it for a short time, to create a mood and an atmosphere.
. You given some information of the plot and characters and its the audiences job to guess the missing peices to the trailer, answer the questions in the trailer if there is any, and to create their own interpritation of the film this is to include the viewer making it interactive as we enjoy the mental challange.
. Sound is very important in the trailer particulary music which can manipulate our emotions and create atmosphere
. Voiceovers is a feature of advertisment used to summarise aspects and emphasise infomation
. Infomation is portrayed fast moving and requires attention moving at a fast pace.
. Most Trailers have a unique selling point, including a star or famous director or maybe a book prior to the movie.
