300 movie trailer analysis

In these following paragraphs I will be a analysing a short clip (trailer) of the popular 2007 hit movie 300, using M.I.G.R.A.I.N analysis to help me along the way.
This movie is a film adaptation of the of a popular graphic novel of the same title and this movie is about is a fictional retelling of the Battle of Thermopylae which is how 300 Spartans fought against the Persian army which were more than a million people.
The movie trailer starts off with the signature introduction of a Warner Bros Movie which consists their logo but customised differently depending on which type of movie is being introduced, so for this one the logo was coloured in blood red colour which would indicate that this movie is going to be about violence and would include bloody scenes, so are all of the other companies which have been shown in the opening credits.
The first scene shows a slow motion clip that is captured in a silhouette-like view of an army of many being pushed of a cliff, this effect may have been used to add intensity and to make people amazed of how this type of lighting is used as the sunlight is behind them and their features cannot be seen, you can see from the setting that the time of this is early morning by focusing on the background scenery.
This movie is a science fiction/ action movie that is unique to other movies because of the unusual effect that is used which is a mixture of animation with real-life video this is called super-imposition chroma key technique and is used to help replicate the imagery of the original comic book and so they can maintain the evil effect of battle they are trying to put across for the audience’s entertainment and to keep the interests of the target audience which are mainly young male adults who are into movies that are jammed packed with action such as this, and is more appealing to them because of the exaggerated violence and blood that is shown in the trailer.
