Takers

TAKERS Trailer Analysis This film trailer is called Takers which was out in 2010 and features a range of popular celebrities such as T.I who is a rapper and Chris Brown who is a singer/rapper. These celebrities bring in a young audience and a large buzz about the film since they are well known and popular with a huge loyal fan base. The trailer reminds me of Ocean 13 which is a very well known heist film with it's finesse. The trailer followers a lot of heist film trailer conventions which I like and I feel may work well with my trailer. I like the way that sounds from objects are exaggerate for dramatic effect and the there are voice overs of different actors in the film. The use of the narrative voiceovers and shots help explain what the film is about allowing the audience to understand a bit of the storyline. I also like the way each shot is cut to cause a blackout when cutting to the next, this matches with the sudden dramatic sounds. One thing we really liked about the trailer was the way they introduce the actors in the film by adding a shot of them with their name next to it and then it cuts to a shot of them in the film allowing us to understand the type of character they will be playing in the film.
