Three Trailers From Chosen Genre

The Last Airbender-

Style- Very simple with little writing, mainly narration

Music- Japanese style at the beginning matches the narration, the setting and the action that is happening then changes as the action and view changes which gives it a tense and exciting feel as the audience sees the ships against one boy.

Stars- No star cast is shown off so the film must stand as its own.

Plot- Very clearly and simply portrayed in the narration, someone who is the last of their kind who can control air has many people wanting to kill him and he is going to try defend himself.

Editing- Only a couple of fades when writing is on. Has very smooth camera movement to focus on the character and also controlled which gives the feeling of his characterisation also in the controlled way he moves.

Graphics- The graphics are shown at the end of the trailer when the army coming to destroy him is revealed. It tells of action that may happen in the film and about how important this one boy is.



Five events in the trailer and the questions each one raises-

  1. He blows out some of the candles with his hand
    • How did he blow out the candle without some sort of device.
  2. He blows out all the candles in one go by slamming down his staff
    • How far does his power go and why is he there alone
  3. He takes off his hood showing his face
    • Is he as young as he looks and why does he have marks on his head
  4. He blows all the people off the edge of the cliff they are climbing
    • Why do those people want to kill him
  5. Lots of ships fire fireballs at the temple where the Airbender is.
    • Who is in charge of those ships if anyone and why are they trying to destroy the Airbender.
