Specfiic research into teaser trailer - The Woman In Black - Official Teaser Trailer (HD version)


The Women In Black is one of the teaser trailer I have focused on for my own project as well as combining what I have learnt from the other research I have done about full trailers. In this teaser trailer I like how it begins with blackness and just the audio, this creates an atmosphere to begin with, which already has en effect on the audience, the specific sound of wind passing by sets the scene. Another area I like is how it is cut with the sound of the wind carrying on through out the beginning of the trailer, leading into the sound of the ticking noise, which is linked with the exact time of the cut. The talk over of the little girl telling a story, would make the audience feel on edge but also drawn more to the trailer as little girls are represented as cute innocent children. The ending of the trailer is effective how it speeds up about half way through the trailer, which would make the audience in effect hold their breath as they don't no what is too come next, to back to normal cutting pace which adds more effect over all as it leads back into the beginning sounds of the wind. I like all parts of this teaser trailer. I will try and attempt adds much of these within my own teaser trailer.



I thought I would research into teaser posters as previously I have focused on the official trailer poster. Beginning with The Women In Black poster, you can see that they have edited it in a way that relates to the whole film. This was done by the way in which the main charter is the main focus, stands out really well which is what I have done. Also the way the title of the film has the blurred effect is again shows a link to the film, as it gives a sense of ghostly atmosphere. This is something I took on myself thinking ahead of what effect of the title I would choose, and think it linked rather well with the plot of the film as is it mysterious looking, with how it is placed on different levels. The use of black is effective as it related to darkness and horror, something which I have also used.
