Death Race 2 teaser trailer

This trailer is a sequel from Death Race so the audience already know what the film is about and the main characteristics. The Trailer starts off with showing the production company which is Universal. This typical of most trailer as the production use it for publicity. The Trailer is approximately 1.03 long which is about average for teaser trailers.

From the very beginning it starts off with a voice over which gives the audience a sense of what its about, the location and who's in it. They have used dialogue from parts of the film to give an idea of what its about for example "every car will hold as many guns and ammunition as it can", this shows that the film is brutal and action packed. Another example is when they say "if the prisoner wins five races he wins his freedom", this also tells the audience the basic plot of the film. The voice over also states some some of the films that the film maker has already made, this will allow the audience to recognise some of the films which they may have seen and enjoyed. The voice over also tells the audience information such as the film name and when it is being released. They have also used backing track to make it more exciting for the audience.

They have edited the clips together quickly rather than just have one scene which is what "super 8" did. This is more common with action films as it gets the audience intrigued and it allows them to see different parts of the film. The more parts of the film that are shown shows the audience that there is a lot of action involved which is what they want. The clips include all the main actors which allow the audience to see who is starring in it. They have used a variety of shots during the teaser trailer so that it appeals to the audience. Using lots of different shots makes it more interesting as well.
