Title Analysis
Every trailer has titles and they are an effective way to tell a story that you perhaps can't include with the media in the trailer. For example, the trailer shows the story whilst the titles describe the actual story line. Alongside doing this it also lets the audience know when the trailer will first be in cinemas; this is an obvious help for the audience to be attracted to the trailer as it gives a clear idea of when they can view it - if they want to.

We will aim to fulfill as many titles as possible (but not too much that our trailer is just filled with titles). We think that titles are a good way for our audience to understand our story line better as our story line is quite advanced and some things are not included in the media of our trailer; therefore a good amount of titles will help our audience understand.
