Whilst watching the film trailer Shank to help plan my timeline for my groups film trailer I looked at how they used the one minute twenty-four seconds of their trailer. I chose to use this film trailer as it is under the genre of social realism and that is the genre of the film trailer my group would like to make. Overall there is a total of one hundred and forty one cuts through out the trailer. In the first five seconds there is a total of six cutes and the fist five seconds in include four titles that include institutions and other narrative information about the film. From five to twelve seconds there is seven cuts and in these cuts we get some narrative about the film and two characters are introduced this could suggest that they are the two characters that the film is primarily based around as they are introduced first. Then from twelve to twenty-two seconds there are sixteen cuts and within these cuts we see more narrative titles along with sound bridge of dialogue. A sound bridge of dialogue is where we hear a person talking and at first we assume it is a voice over but we see that it goes to seeing someone talking in the next scene/cut this links the two cuts together. Between twenty-two to twenty-eight seconds there is twenty-three cuts, in these cuts there are narrative titles, a introduction into more characters and this time it is gangs that will take another lead role throughout the film. We also see the use of another sound bridge to link the two separate scenes. From twenty-eight seconds to forty-six seconds we see 16 cuts this suggests that there is less action between the eighteen second gap as there is less cuts then the previous gap before. At forty-six seconds we see another narrative title each telling the audience more and more about the film trailer and the storyline. In the next three second gap from forty-six seconds to forty-nine seconds we see three cuts and one includes another narrative title. Between fort-nine and fifty-two seconds we see seven cuts and two narrative film titles. Next from fifty-two seconds to one minute four seconds we witnessed fifteen cuts and at one minute four seconds we see another title but this a title of one of the stars included in the film. This is used to entice people to watch the film if they know the star from previous films, this helps attract more of an audience. The next title that includes a stars name is at one minute five seconds between the previous one at one minute four to this one there is a total of two cuts in the space of one second. Again at one minute six seconds there is yet again another title including a stars name that features in the film and agin we see two cuts, our next title is at one minute seven seconds and through the one second gap we only see one cut and again it is a title of a star that is in the film Shank. Between the last pause at one minute seven seconds the next one I stopped at one minute thirteen seconds and between this time there was sixteen cuts and at exactly one minute thirteen we see a title again but this title is the one that tells us the films name. The next pause is at one minute sixteen seconds after three seconds we see two cuts and at one minute sixteen seconds we see yet again other title of narrative about the film. We see from there to one minute seventeen seconds three cuts and another narrative title linked to the one before at one minute sixteen seconds. After two seconds taking us from one minute seventeen seconds to one minute nineteen seconds there is two cuts and at one minute nineteen seconds there is another narrative title about when the film is out to allow the audience to know when to go to see it. Finally at one minute twenty-two seconds see the billing board this stays in focus for two seconds which takes us the the end of the trailer but between one minute nineteen seconds to one minute twenty-two seconds we see four cuts this suggests that the action has faded out towards the end.
Overall there is eighteen titles and one billing block through out the one minute twenty-four seconds social realism film trailer Shank.
