The trailer i will be analysing will be the very successful Superbad. Superbad is a American comedy film, which was released in 17th of August 2007. The film was directed by Greg Mottola. Mottola is experienced director when it comes to comedy films, He has directed films like Adventureland, Paul and Clear History. The film was written by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, who started on the script when they were both thirteen years old. By the time they were fifteen they had completed a draft.
What made the trailer very successful and what made people watch it was the awkward moments and when something doesn't go according to plan. People like to see things go wrong because when something goes wrong, its funny or something stupid has caused the error. This is two of the key conventions of comedy.
Another aspect that made the trailer was the soundtrack. The sound was a James Brown funk rock called Superbad. The song was very popular in the 70's. The song had a funk vibe grove that would make anyone moved their head to beat, so it was a perfect song choice. The impact that the song had was that that song was so upbeat and happy that it made have this vibe in everyone who watched. The song matched the pace of the editing which didn't make the trailer weired. The song even gave me so adrenaline after watching the trailer.
