Trailers Researched

When researching trailers we as a group looked at those that fell under the genre of 'thriller' as that is the genre we are basing our film on. Inspiration came from the trailer of 'Sorority Row' and 'Eden Lake'. Both films are of the same genre, and the trailers contain the same conventions; however the structure of the trailer differ from one another.
