I think that this is a very effective beginning for a horror film trailer. I believe the suspense is create by the equilibrium being quickly broken at the beginning of the trailer by the use of fast action and edits, along with a sudden sound. This creates disequilibrium and I feel this is what makes it so interesting. The edits match the sound and the action to make the viewer feel like they are in the action which makes them intrigued in the film, making them want to watch more. I feel this is a very good example to help me plan ideas of how to begin my trailer as I want to make my viewers interested in the trailer just as this one does.
As I watched the rest of the trailer, as it began to tell the story, I didn't think it was as effective as the beginning so I chose not to analyse it. However I am going to choose another more successful trailer that gives an incite into the story effectively so I can use the same similar techniques in my trailer.
