Paranormal activity research

Paranormal Activity (UK poster)

The thing i like most about this poster is the quote, this lets the audience know they are going to be scared making them want to see how they are going to be scared.

The picture use also makes the audience wonder what the cast are pointing at as it is not totally noticeable in the poster at first. But after looking at it for a while you notice the shadow of a figure on the door, this makes the audience interested in what that figure is and what its going to do!

Also the time in the bottom right corner of the photo makes the audience wonder what it is. I like how the title in presented by including a question and answering it its self as it makes the audience wonder again.

Paranormal activity (Italy poster)

I like how the poster they used for Paranormal Activity didn't give too much of the film away but interested the audience leaving them wanting to know more. For example the time t the top right hand side of the poster '3:22:54 AM' catches the audiences attention as you don't know why that time is on the poster making you want to find out what it means. along with the mysterious figure, the audience wants to know what/who it is and what it does.

The trailer

The trailer was the most effective as it captured the audiences reactions of the film making the audience watching the trailer want to experience it for them selves. 

Also it shows you some clips of the film that makes the audience interested in what happens in the film and what it comes to and how it all begins.

overall i think this trailer is very effective making the audience want to experience the thrill them selves.

For my teaser i could create something like this trailer as i think it is most effective on the audience making them want to see more! Also I like how the posters dont give anything away which is something i would like to do for my magazine and also the poster to go with my teaser trailer.
