Trailer Analysis HW

I have chosen to choose a clip from The Avengers to analyse. I will be talking about the different camera angles and shots and will also talk about the use of mine-en-scene in the trailer.

These screenshots are extreme close up of two people holding hands before they go in to battle and the other shot shows iron man looking under his costume as he is flying looking rather distressed. The first screenshot of people holding hands as they are about to start fighting, the fact they are holding hands shows that they are in the fight together and there is also complete focus on the hands and and the background is blurred so everybody is focused on the hands. The sound is soft but you get a sense of rising tension as if something is going to happen, foreshadowing potential danger. The Iron man Ext close up makes the audience focus specifically on what Iron man is saying and will intrigue the audience even more by knowing what Iron man sees from looking inside his mask.

These screenshots are mid shots showing a small fight ,Captain America riding a bike and Hulk getting hold of a car and throwing it. For the first screenshot As the fight last 5 seconds and the mid shot enables us to see what they are fighting near and as it is the first actual fight in the scene it sets up the rest of the scene and shows the audience what is to come for the rest of the scene. The angle is slightly moved to the left giving us a different angle to the fight so we can see exactly what moves she uses which attracts the audience. The sound for all screenshots is quite high tempo and fast which you'd associate with an action film and will keep the audience intrigued throughout.
