ANALYSIS OF MEDIA AWARDS TRAILER - VENGEANCE.

VENGEANCE 
Vengeance was one of many films trailers which were produced by former year 13 students and were presented at the media awards 2012. This film trailer in particular was produced by 'prime time production' and won for it's excellence in cinematography.

What Went Well (WWW):

• The cinematography throughout the trailer was clear and well structured. For example, close up shots are very often used these create enigma codes for the audience and also shows the exact facial expression of the characters. Through cinematography as the audience we also become aware of the body language even without seeing the facial expression or the surrounding the character may be in. 
• The mise-en-scene through out the trailer was excellent as they have used all props, make up, hair etc very well and effectively. Props such as the mask is used exceedingly well as it connotes that there is a hidden identity beneath there whom does not wish to be revealed to the rest of the world.
• The sound and lighting was also very effective and well presented through out the trailer. As the sound had been added into the trailer it was non-diagetic. The sound was also parallel as it related well with the plot of the trailer and did not seem unusual for it to be played at any point. The lighting connotes that the films genre is horror as the production team have used natural light from the sky and although it is filmed during the night this works well as it creates the sense of suspense and fright for the audience. This is also mainly low-key lighting used as there are many shadows. 

Even Better If (EBI):

• Although the music sound was good the sound of the voice over and speech could have been clearer and easier to understand. Also the music being played was slightly to loud when there was speech and should have been lowered as this could have made the speech easier to understand.
• Also as natural light was used a lot, this made it hard for the facial expressions to be seen even if the shot was a close up therefore they could have used dime background lights in order to keep the same atmosphere and just make the expressions and movements easier for the audience to see.
