15 megs, I will post smaller version later.


This is my two minute Trailer to my latest movie. About 60% of the film has already
been shot. Production locations: Queens, Long Island, and Manhatten. Cast of about twenty, and a crew
of only ten. IF you want to see the in-theater release, let me know. It will be played at a movie theater
this fall at a film festival I am putting together. Enjoy! Hope you come see the premeire if you live around
NYC.
 
Umm aren't trailers supposed to give some kind of idea of the plot?
All I see is this guy being a jerk.
 
Sure, bring on comments/suggestions, its all good. We realized this one doesn't detail much about plot or whatever.
IT was mostly just meant to get people's interest. 😉
 
I wouldn't have it broken up into those three sections. I'd only use one song and I'd cut out the first to sections anyway.

The point of a trailer is to get people to watch your movie. The first two sections, while they look nice, they don't mean anything to the viewer. If anything, I'd cut out the middle part and lay in audio bites from the it over the shots of the city.

It's ok to not give away too much of your plot, but you have to do it in a more constructive manner. You have engross the people into the trailer with music and images rather then what the plot. The middle section starts to do that, but you're out of it before you can get into it.

I hope this helps and doesn't offend you in anyway. I'm an editor and just wanted to help.

Edit: If you just want this one to get people's attention, cut it in half and only use one song.
