Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice
Purpose and content
The product was made to advertise/promote the new Batman vs Superman: Dawn of
Justice film. This is so when it comes out people will buy tickets to watch the new film
and also to make sure that people are aware of the film. The trailer is effective in doing
this as it uses a variety of mise en scene techniques to make the video look dramatic
and exciting and in overall appealing to people. with exception of mise en scene the
trailer uses fast/slow cut editing, special effects/sound effects and transitions. Taking in
consideration that these are scenes from the movie. So most of what the trailer does is
just making a montage of the film and making the trailer look eye-catchy and
remarkable. But to talk about what we see in the trailer the trailer does well to picture
certain locations/settings and lightings. Such as when we see superman he's mostly in a
bright setting as he mostly saves people during the day in metropolis or somewhere
else and when we see batman he's usually in a dark setting as he mostly fights crime
during the nights in Gotham where most crime occur in the city or somewhere else. so
the use of location/setting and lighting is effective as we can tell what type of
superheroes these superheroes are. Batman a vigilante that likes to fight in the nights of
Gotham as he's character is a dark and more menacing character and batman as a
character mostly lurks in the shadows which is shown in the trailer as you can see
strong shadows of batman whenever he appears and superman in the day as he wants
to stand out and be bright and not lurk in the shadows giving superman a more brighter
character. the use of a variety of camera shots are shown in the trailer from wide shots,
close ups, mid shots, cutaways etc. moreover, the use of transitions are used in this
trailer. One in particular the fade to black to show a variety of stories/events that occurs
in this trailer for the advertisement of the film. Also the use of effects are shown in the
trailer. one scene shows superman flying and laser beams coming out from his eyes.
In addition, the treatment of the video is authorative. the video has voice overs from
characters within the trailer and we can understand what the characters are saying
clearly. Also they're are dialogue (scripted) from the likes of famous actors such as
Henry Cavil , Ben Affleck , Jesse Eisenberg, Laurence Fishbourne, Diane Lane, Amy
Adams and Jeremy Irons.
