Are the director/producer/stars name given to us? If so why or why not?
Martin Scorsese is given to us to let fans of his films and the audience know the style of movie if they are familiar with his work. Towards the end of the trailer the most familiar actors of the film such as Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Wahlberg to, again, entice fans of these actors and attract them to go and see the movie in cinemas.
What can you say about the voice of the person delivering the voiceover?
The voice is only present in the first few seconds of the trailer and is given by presumably the head of the gang/mob. It sets the scene for the audience and let's us know that the cop doesn't act much different to a criminal when put in a particular situation. It let's us know the genre of the film of a police crime movie.
What can you say about the use of music?
The music in this trailer isn't consistent as different types of music and moods are set. The music towards the end of the trailer is a ballad over action scenes compared to the music towards the beginning which builds tension captures the audience.
What can be said about the editing and therefore the narrative?
There are continuously short, quick snippets of clips are rarely long takes however the shots selected manage to portray the narrative through dialogue and the voice over.
What dialogue from the film do we hear and why?
The genre of a police crime is recognised through the dialogue through phrases like "state police", "elite unit"and "special investigations unit". There is dialogue throughout to keep the audience engaged and help them understand the story as the short clips do not give much away.
Who is the film's target audience? Explain why?
Males 15+ who are interested in action and crime movie. It would mostly draw in fans of both the well known actors and director.
Does the film have a unique selling point?
The USP in this trailer is cop being the mole in a gang/mob and working from the inside instead of trying to take the gang/mob out through a private investigation. The cop falls too deep before he's given the chance to take them down with his life on the line.
