Comparing The Remake Of The Trailer To The Original

We made a remake trailer for the movie Unfriended. We

tried to base it on the original trailer and used it to

influence how our trailer was made. We were unable to

completely remake the trailer however were successful in

recreating some of the scenes. In the original social media

and the was used often with the film, for example facebook

was used and a news website. We managed to recreate this

to a small degree by making a scene in the trailer appear

against the background of a news website.

Moreover both the original and the remake have use

of handheld shots. We were able to recreate scenes

from the original through using these shots.

The original looks more professional and it is clear

that money was spent to make it. The remake trailer

differs to this due to the limit we had of equipment

and the editing software. Also we only had a week to

produce the remake. The limitations we faced help to

explain why the trailers look so different.

Though the remake of the trailer was incomplete I

think we were able to capture a small part of the

trailer successfully. The ideas and what was

happening in the scenes were similar. An example

being when a female character is passed out and

other characters are mocking her.

Due to how the trailer was incomplete we were unable

to make the trailer have the codes and conventions of

horror films which the original has.
