This document summarizes and analyzes three movie trailers. It provides details about the trailers' techniques, tones, and conventions. The Chronicle trailer uses a hand-held camera style and follows teenagers with powers. The Man of Steel trailer uses establishing shots and a voiceover to reveal Superman at the end. The Bourne Legacy trailer is mysterious, slowly revealing the main character through fast-paced editing and a transition from black and white to color.
