The Raven Trailer


    The director of this movie uses appeal to emotion to make his audience feel curious. First, lighting in the vedio is very dark. The director deliberately let his audience see the murderer commiting a crime, see  a lot of dead bodies with blood lying, and clustered black ravens flying, but he just do not show the murderer's face. Second, the music is quite fast and gripping, through which women's screaming, gun shots and  ravens' flapping wings can always be heard clearly. Finally,  a lot of close-ups are spent on showing women's strugging facial expressions before they are killed as well as the criminal's massive murder wepons, which shows the criminal's  madness and cruelty. These signs all let the audience want to watch this movie and find out the murderer as soon as possible.

  1. I think this clip is aiming to generate the emotion and authority appeals. It uses the images of brutally murdered body and med serial killer to create the feeling of fear and audiences will feel curious about the crimes as the response. One detective says:" I am familiar this crime."It is attempting to appeal the authority. Audiences will assume he is the expert on finding the criminals and he may find the ways to stop the crime. The audiences cannot stop the watch it because they want to know the answer. It must be intense and serious film.
