LO: To analyse media text using media language

This shot is a medium long shot to show his gun and if they were to choose any other they would either be to clear and would leave things out or not very clear and would miss out clear details.

The gun connotes gun, violence and death so because of this the movie is an action film.

Background is gold so it's a colour that suggests wealth so maybe he's rich. Even though his clothes look quite casual but they are actually very expensive.

He looks serious so this suggests that he's not playing about. 

3 diegetic sounds in the trailer were the screeching of the tires when bond was driving. Another was the engine of bonds car and the last one gunshots. It adds more entertainment towards the watcher and more action some people will go and watch.

In the trailer they used fade to black when they change the time in the trailer. The cuts at the end kept getting quicker because it got more intense.

The tenet trailer includes tense music to create tension from the person watching it and makes them wanna watch it more to find out. It creates suspense and gets louder and louder then quicker and every time something gets worse until it comes to a complete stop.

Editing

quick cuts during tense scenes and fades in certain areas.

Soundtrack 

Moderate tempo and gets louder on cuts. Quite tense music. 

In the Dune trailer editing is used effectively to make the reader wanna watch it more. It does quick cuts during tense scenes and fades certain times. For example, in the scene where he meets Zendaya the director makes the cuts quicker and music more intense. This creates the impression that the boy and Zendaya stay with each other for the rest of the film and makes the audience think that they will become friends or enemies. In the dune trailer different shot types are used to different effect. For example in one scene they used wide shot to show how small they are in such a big surrounding. This close up emphasises everything around. it shows us what they are seeing aswell.

In the top gun maverick trailer they use a wide range of shot but the most common was the long shot. They use this to show there surrounding when either flying the plane or driving his motorbike like it shows in the photo. They used this photo to show how cool it looks when he's driving the same speed as a plane.

They used many photos like this during the trailer which is the close up. They use this to show there facial expressions and showing how hard it is to fly it.

                                                                                                       Mise-en-scene

The mise-en-scene in this photo is there use of uniform. The uniform improvises that they are ready to get in the planes and battle which creates excitement for the watchers because they just wanna see them get in the plane, and action because that is when it starts to get really good.

Editing

In the editing they used fades to fade into each other with a black screen but when it gets more intense [when there in the plane] it goes into quick cuts and louder sounds. They used a lot of CGI when in the planes but it looked very good.

Soundtrack

For the soundtrack they used quite low sounded music but fast and the voices over the top of the music. Every time that someone speaks the music fades a lot so its almost un-hearable.
