Analysis of "The Amazing Spiderman 2" Trailer

The names of the director, producers or star names aren't given in the trailer which could be due to the fact that it could ruin the tension that was being built up throughout the trailer. Also, none the names are famous enough to be credited so it wouldn't make such a difference in the trailer of the movie whether if the names were displayed or not.

The person delivering the voice over at the beginning was the main character. It's very serious and he dialect matches with the scenes shown within the trailer which creates tension but as the movie trailer goes on, the voice over switches to another character which was his aunt. This could be used to add tension to the trailer due to the dialect that was selected to be added. The voice over switchers from different characters shown in the trailer which could hint to the audience that those are the important or main cast involved in the film and can also conspire a reason to why the main character will be in danger or that the audience will be embarking on a new action-packed adventure with him.

The music at the beginning starts from mute then drums start to play and it builds, creating a crescendo which is what is used to help build up the tension in the trailer. They did this so it demonstrates how dramatic the film is which is what they want the audience to get a taste of as well as the action.

The mise-en-scene tells the audience that it is an action film due to the use of people firing guns and cars being toppled over as well as buildings are being destroyed. It can also tell us that it's set in modern times or the future since they include technology that is used today as well as advanced technology which may exist in the future. The fashion-style of the characters is still the same or similar to the modern-day fashion of today. The mise-en-scene also implies that the film is fictional since the main character is a superhero that has the superpower to create webs from his fingertips.

At the beginning of the trailer, they had a back-track zoom-out of the main character which means that they want the audience to focus on the logo on the back of his superhero costume which was a spider. This will signify to the audience, straight-away that it is the insignia of the superhero, Spiderman. It will also suggest that the film trailer is about the next upcoming Spiderman movie, no matter if they have seen the first movie or not.
