In the 'Paranormal Activity 2' teaser trailer, Its shots are set out as though it has been caught on cctv and a handheld camera placed in various places, this is because this film is a horror and it is trying to create that feeling of it being real rather then the standard filming shots. This is a clever and effective way of making a low budget very scary film making it look as realistic as you possibly can as we believe cctv normally to be truthful. The beginning of the clip shows the last related scene from the first paranormal activity this shows the audience it could be picking up where it left off in the second one. The teacher trailer includes a crackly flashing change an example to explain what i mean is when your on a TV channel that has no service that fuzzy look is used to put together the different shots. This gives the teaser trailer i more realistic look to making it a CCTV footage. we get images of various film watchers in what looks like a darked out cinema room. this shows the audience looking scared and screaming in some clips. this trailer is really persuading its watchers that it is a successfully scary film and this is how they tempt and advertise there audience as you know that teaser trailers are really just to get the audiences attention to what is in store for them in the future. There is text to tell you what is in store which is in a black background and plain white texts. You have the various shots of the house, inside and out. There is no music the sounds and noises in the house hold the tension throughout the trailer. The ending clip with the flashing 2 which then has words appear either side of it to complete the main title flash as though the electric is being tampered with, this is to make it a more scarier feel.
