Creating a trailer for an existing film


I used filmeducation.org/teachingtrailers to create a film trailer for Die Hard. On this site, there is an online trailer making software, which gives you clips and sountracks to create a trailer for the film in any sequence you like.

 This taught me that there are many different ways that a trailer can be structured using the same variation of clips. It also showed me how a range of clips are required, with different moods and lighting effects. The music you choose also creates the effect of the trailer, as I also discovered on this website. Some peices of music just did not fit the clips I had to use, showing me that we need to think about both the music and the clips we will use in unison.

The finished version of my trailer is below:
