The 'Woman in Black' has not yet been released as it is a umcoming film for 2012, the genre for this film is thriller. As this film has not yet been released by researching it enables us as an audience to get a clearer idea of what conventions a movie trailer is likely to have. The 'Woman in black' is also the same genre as our trailer we are going to produce therefore it will help us alot.

Setting - The main setting of the movie shown in the trailer is of an old house and inside there are many of antique objects and looks as thought no-one has lived there for years. We also see a small village which seems to be quite poverty-stricken. An old beach is also shown and there is a lot of col, wet weather which creates a mysterious atmosphere.

Sound/dialougue - In the trialer there is a young girls voice over giving the narrative when the trailer first starts, she sounds quite calm and mysterious. As the trialer continues to run we can hear circus music, ticking off a clock, old toys moving and the sudden sound of thudding and wind. This could give us the impression that soemthing is not right in the house.

Characters - Within the trialer there is one main character who is a man that lives in the abandoned house. Also, three young girls are also shown in the trailer and some of the people who live in the village who also seem quite afriad and the can slightly see the 'Woman in Black' towards the end of the trailer.

Props - The props that have been used in the trailer are things such as old toys that look as if they have not been played with for years. There is also a cross in the middle of the beach when the trialer focuses on the sea this could suggest that someone may have died there.
