Introduction

For this year we had a choice of either making a promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music video, with a cover for its release as part of a digipak (CD/DVD package) and a magazine advert for the digipak. Or we had the choice of a promottion package but for a new film, to include a trailer. For this piece of A2 coursework I have decided I am going to be creating a film trailer in a group of three. Alot of planning will be involed such as deciding of the location, props and actors that are going to appear in the video. To help myself and my group decide of the type of trailer were going to film, we will be analysing past and present film trailers to help us gain experience within this industry. By choosing a film trailer I can use my skills i obtained from last years AS coursework (Creating a magazine front cover, contents page and double page spread), When making the promotion package it will be easier to create as i know what selling points to include.
