What is a Teaser Trailer ? Group Post

A teaser trailer is a variation of a film trailer. It's length varies from 30 - 90 seconds minus a few rare trailers such as "The twilight saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" in which the trailer is only 15 seconds long, due to the producers awareness of the popularity of the saga.

Teaser trailers usually have a lack of information incorporated with comments and quotes intended to entice the audience and create a sense of mystery and enigma. "The Girl with Dragon Tattoo" is a perfect example of this due to its short cuts and lack of dialogue, making the storyline unclear yet intriguing. Sometimes they include a 'playful' structure using techniques such as direct address. 

Our preferred teaser trailer of those we have seen so far is "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", not only as we find the genre appealing but the techniques and skills used to create the trailer itself are unique and abstract.
