Research Into Teaser Trailers 6

 

I was really excited to see this teaser trailer because I have seen the Arnold Schwarzenegger version, so this Total Recall is going to have a lot to live up to. Colin Farrell was chosen to play the character Dennis Quaid; 

• the teaser begins by showing Colin aka Dennis looking over a balcony a wide angle shot is taken. 
• This is followed by a non-diagetic loud menacing sound and various other shots of the main cast in action. 
• We see a lot of futuristic special effects which is a good sign because the original had the same type of effects but not this clean and believable. 
• The teaser trailer is short at 39 seconds long and shows enough content for you to take an interest in the film. 
• The sounds employed throughout are non-diagetic and are clearly meant to give the impression of futuristic technology. 
• All the shots are heavy with CGI adding to the futuristic theme.
