I have decided that a film i would like to look into is "Jurassic World". I am looking at this trailer for its use of Camera work, Editing, Sound and Mise-en-scene. Looking at this trailer will allow me to understand in detail the codes and conventions of a professional trailer which means I can apply these techniques to my own moving image project.

- The opening shot for 'Jurassic World' shows a family in an airport prior to their children's arrival at the Jurassic world island and the events that are to unfold there. This scene uses a specific piece of dialogue which foreshadows the events to come and gives a basic narrative to the plot of 'Jurassic World'. "You're gonna have so much fun, and if anything chases you, run!" This is closely followed by the Universal logo which has the Legendary film company logo incorporated into it. We are then introduced to the setting of the film with a long shot. We can also see a ferry heading towards the Setting which suggests this place is somewhere of great controversy and popularity. A follow shot is also used at the beginning of this scene. We originally only see the ferry moving, yet not knowing what to. Then a wide shot is used to show the island and the comparison between the Island and the people on board the ferry.

- The use of non-diegetic sound when "On June 12" appears helps create a nostalgic feel for older audience members. we see one of the main protagonists in this scene and the awe of amazement as he see the gates to the park open. We then have a high shot showing the masses of people in the park which connotes that there is now a park finally open to the public unlike the previous films. the soundtrack helps emphasize the enormity of the crowd. The audience are then shown the dinosaurs at the park which is eventually built up throughout the trailer.

- As the mention of a hybrid dinosaur is mentioned the music begins to become much darker and each scene cuts away when it ends. This creates tension at it builds up to showing hints of the dinosaur. We are never directly shown what the create looks like which teases the audience. The beginning of the trailer is much lighter then the ending of the trailer.

The music throughout is in time with the scenes.

These are just a few of the noticeable features that help emphasise the films narrative and genre through sound and camera work.
