Bridget Jones Diary Trailer Analysis






Bridget Jones Diary Trailer



Bridget jones diary is a romantic comedy. This is shown through many genre indicators, such as at the beginning Bridget mentioned that she didn't want any of the following - workaholics, alcoholics, peeping toms and perverts and straight away the audience knew what this film was going to be about, and she would end up with somebody that fits the category of all of those. This shows that it is a romantic comedy because typically in every rom com we get introduced to the guy that isn't right for her, and here we did as it was her boss.

Throughout the trailer we realise that he is a big mistake and that she is going to mess up if she ends up getting with him and this makes the audience wonder if she is ever going to realise this is an inappropriate relationship and that Colin is the one for her which always happens in films that are similar to this. In most romantic comedies there is always the love rivals, both of them that wants to be with Bridget, but she decided to choose the one that isn't right for her first and then eventually realises what she is doing and fights for the other one back before it ends up being too late and she looses him for good. Also we see a fight break out during the two men, this is because they both want her and both know they are going to have to try very hard to get her and she is hard to get, even she is confused herself as throughout the trailer we see her get closer to the other guy and this makes the audience wonder who she is going to choose, this makes the audience really get involved with the film and will make them want to concentrate and watch to the end to find out what happens.

We also see the stereotypical parents on the mans behalf, when he is sitting at the dinner table and he tells them that he met this woman and they don't really know how to react, the father is usually more useless and caring, but the mother is a little annoying and interferes in everything and we see this when she was asking questions about it. There is also the traditional near miss, where you think that two of them are in love, this would be Bridget and the first man, but then things occur and you don't know because we then get introduced to the second man which makes everyone's opinion to change. 

Overall this is a very stereotypical romantic comedy as it involves everything that the audience would expect to happen in a romantic comedy.

Gravity Trailer Analysis

Gravity is a sci-fi film. The first part of this trailer displays plain white text on a pain black background with no music in the background, this makes the audience focus on the writing as they have to read information instead of the usual of being given it straight away. Therefore this is more on the educational side as they have to use there brain while figuring out what things mean and instead of being able to seen it they are able to imagine it instead. There is no music in the background to distract them therefore the producers are trying to get them to put all of their focus on the text. Out of nowhere there is a sudden sound and everything goes extremely dramatic in matter of seconds and contrasts majorly at the beginning of the trailer with no sound or movement. In a way this could be the producers moving the audience into the surroundings and settings so therefore they feel apart of the film. As the scene may make the audience feel like they are falling.

Little Miss Sunshine Trailer Analysis

Little miss sunshine is a comedy film. At the beginning of the trailer, we are shown the production title which is fox, this is one of the first things shown because it may attract the audience as they know that this production company is very popular and makes very successful films. The music in the background is what the audience would expect when watching these types of film, it isn't too slow but then on the other hand its also not too upbeat and fast to flow with the scenes and therefore it is perfect for the way that the trailer is moving. This is effective for the audience because it will give them an insight on what type of pace the film is going to be and what type of mood it is going to set. After the scene of the man and the boy talking, it fades out to add information about the film and the characters and producers, this is effective because it does this every so often throughout the film so it doesn't happen all in one go and its also not too quick so people
