The Last Laugh Trailer- Second Draft

The Last Laugh Trailer- Second Draft

After working on the improvements suggested by our target audience, we added relevent effects to the tone cards which gave them an illuminating look. We darkened down the scene when Buffy is alone to indicate to the audience that the trailer has shifted towards the moment of disequilibrium. The non diegetic sound from the beginning of the trailer till the tone card 'From the Directors  of Scream' coneys the period of equilibrium.We also darkened Kirby's scene to create a sinister and threatening atmosphere.We added 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' camera shot music to our snaphot sequence which displays the corpses of Kirby and Tatum. Our traget audience thought this was effective in putting them on edge and depicting the sadistic nature of the villain. However, they still felt that there should be something else in the trailer towards the final scenes to build back the tension as currently the trailer loses its pace towards the end. The non- diegetic sound must also be added they said.
