Teaser Trailers - Horror films

Although this trailer may be old it is still modern and uses alto of the key conventions of typical horror films. From the start you can see that the film is dark but not expected in a typical horror film as there is classical music being played, and just random clips of people shown on a wall from a projector. Then it says "THE TRAPS ARE SET" this can be worrying to people as it's not what they want to hear. The music becomes more dramatic and so do the pictures, they show people screaming and shouting or in pain the music is loud fast and dramatic the sort of music that should be in a action film, but the music is used in suspense for what is yet to come, it leaves us in a sense of wanting more. There is already a target audience for this film as it is a sequal to the other SAW films. There is a mixture of dialogue and faint music where we can hear people screaming. We then see the face of SAW so we understand what the film is and it is shown large and in colour whereas the other parts of the trailer have been projectered onto a wall and are faint.
