Now Is Good - Film Trailer

This trailer opens with non diegetic sound which sounds fast paced and quite engaging to the audience. Through a close up, we are introduced to a young female, who is most likely to be the main character hence why we have been shown her first. Then a medium shot is used to show the young female running, possibly away from something as her concerned expression shows. We are then shown her again with longer hair, possibly her as a younger girl. The word "Tessa" is shown, suggesting that this is the name of the young female. The genre of this film seems like a romance as the next scene is of the female climbing over a hedge with a voice over of a young male. This is a common feature in a romance film. The next scene is the male who was talking in the voice over, in which he is introducing himself to the young female. In the next clip, the young female is shown through a medium shot saying "i've just taken drugs" which is stereotyping young teenagers as many people believe that this is what they do. The young male is shown through a medium shot also to show his facial expressions. The music then stops suggesting an awkward pause is happening in the film as well. In the next scene the young female is shown to be taking a man's card out of an ATM machine and then cuts to two females running away through a long shot. This conforms to stereotypes of teenagers because they are seen as rebellious. A shot reverse shot is used to show the man who the card belongs to running after them. The diegetic sound  is of an alarm suggesting that she is in trouble. After, the words "because there is a time limit" is shown suggesting that the young female is dying. The next scene is of Tessa and her dad at a radio interview. This scene consists of medium shots, using shot reverse shot. The diegetic sound in this clips is of Tessa speaking about her dying. She is quite blunt with the interviewer by saying "so whats your angle going to be? is it the whole dying girl thing or have you got something original planned?" Through a close up, the interviewer looks towards the dad for reassurance. The camera then cuts to tessa lying in a hospital bed suggesting that she is sick and needs to visit the hospital for treatment. Another voice over is used to reveal some more information about Tessa such as her age. Meanwhile, the clips shows close ups of Tessa, showing the audience that she is the protagonist in this film. She then asks a doctor who much time she has to live and he replies that she has to do the things that she wants to do now. The scene then cuts to a wall with different activities on it. This is Tessa's bucket list which has all of the things that she wants to do before she dies. A close up of Tessa's hand is then shown to show her writing more things onto the wall. The last word that she writes is "date" which the scene then cuts to the young male asking her out on a date. Through a medium shot, he is shown to have his hands in his pocket suggesting that he is nervous. The two are then shown through a long shot together on a walk. This connotes a romance film because they are doing typical things that you would expect a couple to do. The rule of thirds is used next as Tessa is shown on the left hand side of the screen. This engages the audience because of how you can see the scenery behind her as well. Soon after, the young male and Tessa are shown in dark lighting suggesting that the film follows them in their relationship. Tessa and the young male are shown to be sitting on a bench together talking about Tessa. This suggests that the young male cares for Tessa. Some soft music, mainly piano, is played as non diegetic to connote to a romance film. Tessa and the young male is shown in a two shot, facing each other. A close up of the male is used to show his expression and to show his passion for Tessa. There is then a close up of them kissing, connoting love and passion. The next scenes are used to show the two together, showing that they are in a relationship. The actors names are shown next to a close up of them to show the audience all of the well known cast, which will engage them and make them want to go and see the film because of the films they have previously been in. A voice over is later played again, conforming to the conventions of a romance film, this time showing some of the moments that she has. This links to the voice over because she is talking about moments and how special they are. Some moments include, fireworks and many with the male that she is dating.
