Ideas brainstorm
We originally thought about doing a 19th century themed teaser trailer after watching other examples of A2 media coursework teaser trailers, and brainstorming what we could do to make ours different. As the predominant number of A2 teaser trailers on YouTube appeared to be modern horror-themed, we decided to go with an older theme. Furthermore, we have thought about making a trailer which would challenge the typical conventions of its genre. We knew this could be effective if we pulled it off, as, for example, the TV drama "Downton Abbey" tried this and was extremely successful, although it is set in a different century.
We then thought about issues that were present in that era, and the subject of class, things which could potentially play a large part in our trailer:
We have yet to decide the storyline and theme running through our trailer, but this has given us some different ideas to work with, and inspiration.
