Research into Different Trailers - Thriller

Buried

 This is the sponsoring company for the production of the film.
First that we see of the focusing character, the green light on his face, is quite a menacing colour, implying something is going on with him and that he could be quite suspicious.
 This shows the name of the character letting us into who he is. The line forming underneath his name is a great way to emphasise who he is.
 The colour has changed since he got a lighter to warmer tones on his face, showing intensity and that there might be some hope.
This shows the numbers list on a phone, showing that he has contact. Unrecognisable numbers, this could mean he doesn't know who is calling him and why the phone is there.
A medium close up shot of his arm and watch. This showing he may be time conscious or that he is running out of time.
 Showing he is filming a video with the foreground in focus and the background out of focus. Because he is filming a video on the phone, it shows desperation and that he may not get out of the situation.
 This medium close of his face shows the struggle and frustration in his face. The blue light on his face now highlights him very well, making him more clear to see, the light is most likely from the phone.
 The fire starting in the coffin is very dangerous, having the audience on the edge of their seats. Wanting to know what is going to happen and how he is going to get out of this one.
This creates an interesting effect with his face on the lines. The lines could represent coffins, in which he is trapped in, so the image of his face on the lines, could show he is trapped.
This shows another character, first time we see someone else. This other character is a woman who looks very distressed and is only appearing on the phone screen.
This shows the name of the main character, as we haven't been able to see his face all that well so far, it could be great for the audience to know exactly who the star is.
This effect again of using the lines, which may represent coffins, has the film title in it. This could be meeting the audience's expectations because they have information about what the film is called.
This time the lines are horizontal as opposed to vertical, this has the image of Ryan Reynolds lying down, and the director's name embedded in the lines, showing it all coming together, and the name of the director.
Finally showing information about when the film comes out, so that when the audience watch this trailer they are fully aware of when it comes out, so that they can see it.
