The voice over is used to introduce characters and narrative - it lets the audience know the lifestyle of the one zombie as he explained himself also that he wishes he could connect which is what relates to the narrative of the trailer. This supports the genre of the trailer because its drama and comedy as it was explained in a humorous way. There were many cuts to keep the trailer short. The non diegetic sound was the music - which build up during the trailer,
Even though the voice over was targeted at the audience, the main character in the film could hear it as well since it was him talking - diegetic sound. In addition to this, the characters talking, shooting from guns, any sound that happens in the film is also diegetic.
Todorov - 5 part theory,
equilibrium - The beginning introduces zombies, setting is dead and abandoned. This may represent the zombies since they're all dead.disruption - Character see's girl in shooting scene, zombie takes her and looks after hercomplication - girl's dad kills zombies - problem because zombie and girl are friends, them being together infects other zombies. Zombie is learning to be human from this.The restoration was kind of seen because the zombie turns human and kisses the girl but something might of happened from there. Normally, in trailers the restoration isn't seen because it'll reveal the whole film.
A sound start which shows you are engaging well with the topic. Well done for using narrative theory!
ReplyDeleteebi - if you included more media terminology and examples of moments from the film to explain how the narrative and genre are established.
