Trailer-

Camera work-

-Panning shots at the beginning of the trailer help to set the scene.

-Close-up shots- focusses on expression (fear)

-The length of the clips at first are quite long then gradually get quicker (in what seems to be close to chronological order) which build up tension as the trailer progresses. 

Sound-

Music starts off subtle but creepy with a constant underlying repetitive beat and starts to build up as the trailer progresses, one minute in the music stops and there is just dialogue it then changes to more dramatic sound effects and starts to build further tension.

There is a fair amount of dialogue in the trailer which adds context to the trailer and helps to let the audience know what's happening. 

Editing-

Titles-

-HAMMER horror production- displayed on screen in classic red logo which is cross flashed with ‘Image entertainment’

-Zooms out then in on the titles which read ‘This year’ ‘fear’ ‘comes’ ‘home’
-Each clip fades in and out to a black screen which starts to get quicker as the trailer progresses which again adds tension and builds up adrenalin.
