Avatar teaser trailer

I chose this teaser trailer as I believe the music was the most important aspect of this trailer. Also it leaves us with hardly any clues on what this film is about but keeps us wanting to find out more. It starts with a montage of the Earth with cities, the weather, people, plants growing and even destruction. This shows a generalisation of earth with the non diegetic sound of music that has a happy feel to it. It then switches the mood as it shows the planet and space. The music too changes which I felt had a discovery/ adventure feel to it. the music then builds up as the text suggests the possibility of other life in the universe adding suspense. Finally the music changes to something more sinister as you are shown a planet with the text showing the release date of the film as well as being promised to be shown these aliens. The music turning sinister gives the feeling that these aliens may not be friendly which leaves us the audience on the edge of our seats. Final cut scenes are of the directors name James Cameron in big and bold as he is a renowned director with the film title Avatar. What was interesting was the font used which was alien with the music reaching its climax before fading to black
