Analysis of Harry Potter Trailer
The Harry Potter soundtrack plays in the background with immediately distinguishes the film as it is such a worldwide known film. The Harry Potter films have been being made for 10 years making The Deathly Hallows: Part 2 such an important trailer as it is the end of an era.
Warner Bros has been hugely involved with the making and advertising of the film and this has worked well for them as it has been so successful. The Warner Bros logo has been adapted into the trailer to make it known who it came from. It also fits in well with the harry potter theme as it is dark and sinister like the film.
The trailer begins with clips from the very first harry potter film that was released and comes up with the words 'Every moment he has lived, has lead to this' which makes it even more exciting as it gets the audience thinking what has it lead to?. Clips from the previous films are shown to show just how far the film has come and increases the hype created by the audience to want to watch the film.
The music played in the background is very dark and sinister also creating suspense as to what will happen and what has the previous stories lead too.The song which is harry potters trademark seems different to normal with it being of a higher pitch and sounding like it being sung by a woman making it mysterious. You then hear Voldemort speak saying "You have fought valiantly, now join me harry and confront your fate" and then shows 5-6 clips of the film but in the space of 4 seconds which gives the audience a small insight of the film which is enough to make them start guessing and want to see the film now. They also coincide with the pace of the music becoming faster with the music changing to upbeat making it more exciting as it reveals a little more of the plot.
The clips that are shown contain alot of text and quotes which is enticing the reader and starts to get them thinking as to what is going to happen such as "the boy who lived, come to die", "Come on Tom, lets finish this were we started, together" and 'Tell them how it happened that night, how you looked him in the eye, a man who trusted you, and killed him'. All this keeps the audience guessing and creates suspense. It also sees them trying to work out who is talking in each quote.
Throughout the trailer it is dark and in a way scary meaning the audience will ot understand whether the ending will be good or bad. As the film is the last one so one of the most important, there are only around 10 clips from the film actually shown in the trailer taking up about 1 second each. This sees the audience start trying to piece these clips together. As the clips are so fast and exciting including explosions and fights it excite the audience and make it look like the ending will be huge.
