Pusher trilogy is
a crime thriller released in 2005, as a class we reviewed the trailer so that
we could take both good and bad aspects on board for our own trailers. After
viewing the trailer it got an average mark of 6/10. The trailer had a good use
of fast montages showing people killing each other, taking drugs or being
brutally beaten up. The music was by far the best part of the trailer, the
sound was a simple heartbeat, edited at a fast pace to build suspension and
tension. I loved the use of quotes within this particular trailer and it worked
better in comparison to voice overs that many other trailers use. The quotes
allowed us to create a mental image of what was going to happen, leaving us on
edge and nervous for the overall outcome. The only negativity from the trailer
was the fact at times the trailer was going to rapidly, losing the story line
and making it hard for me to understand what was happening at particular times.
From this trailer I am going to take away the importance of the music, and the
affect it has on the trailer. I am also going to remember that fast montages do
work well as long as they are at a reasonable speed, so that the observers
don’t get lost in the process. Another aspect that could be improved was the
fact the trailer lacked horror conventions and could use more to make it
available to a wider audience.
