The trailer.
• The whole trailer lasts 2.33 seconds.
• It consists of clips from the film and are not necessarily
in the correct order.
• At the beginning of the trailer the clips vary between 1
and 3 seconds long and as the narrative seems to un fold
and the emotions of the character start to change, so
does the music and each clip lasts slightly longer, some
of even 10 seconds.
• The “twist” or “outcome” of the story is not given away but hinted at through
change of music, we gather that there was only one woman from his previous
girlfriends that he was serious about and regrets losing or leaving her.
• It is at the end of the trailer that the voice over announces who the two main
characters are played by.

11. Poster
Looking at the robots they have
bold bright colours with
contrasts of greys and blacks
to show their true identity
and their transformed
identity, The background has
pyramids, sand and sky. This
shows that the film may not
be set in America like the
previous film. Their
movement indicates its more
action related and more
intense, this may catch the
audiences attention and
convince them to want to
watch the film.
