Task 3: Codes And Conventions Of The Harry Potter Trailer

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_kDb-pRCds

Technical
There are all different camera techniques and shots used when the trailer is shown because it cannot be one normal shot otherwise the trailer would be boring and not very attractive to viewers. The cameras used are all different, like; long shot from when the scene shows the whole castle and different battles from distance. There is an extreme close up at the very start showing voldemort and the intensity that the film will produce. The medium and close up are shown when harry and voldemort are talking at the edge of the castle. All the shots are used to create the suspense and the agonising wait for the film to be released. The two shot showing harry and voldemort at the castle is used so that both main characters are seen and showing the main subject of the matter. It shows the background also, showing that it is the edge of the castle and that it is going to be one of the main scenes in the movie.
Symbolic
All the scenes in the trailer are all based in all the battlefields and the different areas of the film that are the most dangerous and this will bring in the viewers a lot more and have their eyes practically attached to the screen. all of the clothes are not exactly brand new and in perfect shape because throughout the trailer there is just constantly action used and its not the perfect conditions for the clean clothing.
Written & Audio
The sounds and audio sort of combine with the images used at the start of the trailer, it goes through a couple of pictures related and as the image changes there is the harry potter theme tune that goes with the image changes. All the battle and exciting scenes that are happening the music builds and builds and the ambience becomes louder as the scenes become faster which then links to all the clips that are used.
