THIS is how you do a trailer. -Sets the tone -Builds tension -Establishes the director knows their shit via prior work up front -Just enough action to leave you wanting more AND most importantly none of that TRAILER BEFORE THE TRAILER "STARTS NOW" crap! youtube.com/watch?v=GTNMt8…
@therealcliffyb We doing trailer critiques now.
@therealcliffyb but if there's no trailer before the trailer, how will my brain know when to start paying attention?
@therealcliffyb Or… telling the entire story in 1.30 like the Crow and every Terminator since 2
@therealcliffyb curious how much of a say you’ve had in what goes into a trailer for games like Gears? Were you pretty involved or was that left up to marketing people
@therealcliffyb Exactly, hell I’d be happy if this is the only trailer we get. Trailers nowadays either giveaway too much or show stuff that ultimately is not even in the final product. Also why do trailers have those quick snips & then play properly? Just annoying when it could play the trailer
@therealcliffyb yeah this is a good trailer. nowadays they always tend to show too much, but this is great.
