2. A promotional package is the way in which a
film is marketed to audiences. Since companies
are unable to go to customers and attempt to
make them see the movie. As a result, the film’s
promotion does this for them.

The trailer for The Hobbit opens up on a picture of the main cast
standing with the sunlight behind them and on a cliff,
emphasising their importance in the story as they immediately
catch the reader’s eye. The music emphasises the scale of the
adventure by playing low noted when our main characters are
shown on screen and the epic spectacles and locations that they
will visit. The trailer then shows us what will happen in the movie
by showing the grand armies and the epic confrontations that will
happen in this film, all the while the words #ONELASTTIME is
written at the bottom in order to make the watchers want to see
the film as it will be the last time that they are able to got to
Middle Earth.

main character as he immediately captures the
audience’s attention.
The fact that the

to the character
standing directly

The army shown in the background emphasises the epic scale of
the film and the leader of said army’s head is larger than anything
else in order to emphasise that he is the most important character
in said army and its leader. As well as this, the tagline of ‘The
Defining Chapter’ emphasises that this film will be the film with
all of the epic battles and confrontations that have been building
up for the last two Hobbit films.
7. The third Hobbit film’s entire promotional
package is based around the epic scale that it
claims to have and the battles that it shows. As
well as this, the film is attempting to say that
this will also probably be the last time that we
visit Middle Earth or at least Peter Jackson’s
version of it.
