Analysis of Trailer: Mission Impossible (i)

For further knowledge of how the film trailer which the team creates for L31 productions, I have analysed another trailer in the same genre of the proposed film.

The next trailed which I chose to analyse is Mission Impossible. Mission Impossible was an action genre film by Paramount Pictures.



Like the inception trailer, one of the main things which is noticeable in the Mission Impossible trailer is the music - which in hindsight became a distinctive and recognisable sound track for the film. This is a developing pattern throughout the trailers which I have viewed, meaning that it will be important that the trailer which our team creates has a strong soundtrack/backing music.

Music aside, the main feature of this trailer is how the shots are quickly cut between to create a tempo for the trailer - this seems a popular feature in action genre trailers, creating a unique feeling of pace throughout. In particular, I like the opening of the trailer - with two scenes being alternated between, one being planning what the other is showing. I believe that this is a good way of opening a trailer and getting the viewers attention, and is something that our team should look at.
