Editing film trailers to match the genre.

We looked at a number of film trailers for the same film however each trailer had been edited differently to match the genre that the film had been put in perspective of. Here are some examples of the film trailers that we looked at:


This is the original film trailer for the horror film 'The Shining'.
It fits in with the genre of horror because of the following reasons:
  • Erie music
  • Isolated location
  • Fast editing
  • Violent images
  • Music speed
  • Mis-en-scene
  • Quick flashes
  • Types of shots



This is re-make of the film trailer 'The Shining' in the genre of a RomCom.
It fits in with the genre of a RomCom because of the following reasons:
  • Cheerful music
  • Longer shots
  • Slower editing
  • Camera angles
  • Nattive voice
  • Introduction of characters
