Solitude Trailer

In this shot the audience is attracted to both the guy and the girl standing over the fire, and the over the shoulder shot thats is seen create a sence of mystery for the guy that is talking to both the guy and the girl. This sceen is also shot in low lights wich also adds on to the myystery of the sceen and it is appropriate for the genre of the film which is horror. The tight framing also implies that the characters are afraid and scared of what might go on in their trip, also the framing implies that they are vounerable to anything that might be out there to harm them. At the begining of the film the camera height is at eye level so that the audience thinks that the characters are nutral about the situation that is at hand, but as the film progresses the camera height is raised above the soulder to show how the characters are weak and adds on to the frightfulness of the movie.

The camera motion in the trailer helps establish the horror theme in this movie because the slow moving shots at the sart of the trailer draw the audience into the tention of the film, and towards the end of the trailer the fast past shots show the classic horror theme bacuse the fast moving shots represent the panic that the character has at that moment. In one shot the car is moving allong the road and the camera goes into a slow motion shot of a car that has been wrecked allong the side of the road, this shot foreshadows bad things that might happen to the group of studentsand the slow motion brings better emphasizes and brings the audience closer to the characters of the film. Towards the end of the traisler the mnotion of the camera becaome quick and short this conveys a frightend emotion both the charaters and the audience feel, also in dramatic part the motion of he camera becomes slower which adds on to the tension of the characters. The director also does a good job of translating camera motion to dramatic and suspenful shots wich represent the characters emotions at the time.
