Analysis of horror film trailer: Jeepers Creepers



I chose to analyse this trailer because it is of a similar genre to the trailer that i am creating. I also decided to analyse this because it is of a similar length to the boundries that i have been set for creating my trailer.

The trailer starts by stating the age guidlines for watching it. It then fades to black and starts showing some of the footage, it begins by introducing the main character and shows what it does and gives an idea into what the film is about. After this is shows the some of the institutions and companies which are assoctiated with the film. It then cuts to the scene where the main charater stops the bus and as this happens creepy style music begins to play to show that something bad it going to happen, the music continuis while the woman is using the phone on the bus but it is lowered so that you can hear the woman talking. A voice over is then used saying "it is going to be dark in about an hour" after this happens it then cuts to what the audience will presume is an hour later when it is dark. The tempo of the music always picks up at a time when the main character enters or is about to enter the scene. It uses title screens to explain parts of the film and uses a voice over saying what the title screen says. then the woman who is pictured in this part is presumed to be doing a voice over giving a breif explination of the film. It then goes into a series of quick cuts showing different scenes within the film, within these scenes is uses lots of close ups to show horror on the faces of the characters. to end the film it has the title of the film "Jeepers Creepers 2" and the voice over of someone saying the title, it also shows a title screen with the date on it the date for this film sayin "coming soon" also at the bottom of this screen it shows the institutions and companies that are assosiated with this film.
