Below I have written up a complete list of conventions I have found when analysing teaser trailers, in terms of their conventions. When creating my own teaser trailer, I will use as many of these conventions as I can, in order to make it look as authentic and realistic as possible.
- Production Logo's (Usually appears at the beginning of the trailer).
- Rapid editing (Often Flashes, Dissolves and Quick flashes).
- References to other Films that share established Producers/Directors).
- References to past awards that the cast and crew have won or been nominated for.
- Music reflecting the genre of the movie or to create tension or suspension.
- Credits of Cast, Crew and Directors - Normally appears towards the end of the trailer, However, can appears throughout the trailer.
- Sound Effects - Impact Sounds dominate.
- Variety Of Camera Shots/Movements.
- Reference To Source Material.
- Voice over - Often is included with Dialog from the movie.
- Eye Candy - This is often in the form of explosives and action.
- Link to Website - This usually appears at the end of the trailer.
- Title of the Film - This is often at the end of the trailer.
- Release Date - In a Teaser trailer, this is likely to be vague, such as "Coming soon" Or "This Summer" and usually appears at the end.
