Research into Radio Trailers

  • Voice over.
  • Sound/speech from the film.
  • Slogan to the film.
  • Information at the end of the end of the film-release date, certificate, where to view. 
Voice Over 
Radio trailers depend on voice overs as they give the necessary information about the film, and without them, the trailer would be pointless and make no sense. They usually give information such as when the film will be released and where. It's generally the voice of a low-pitched male, this gives the film more dramatic tension.


Music 
Music and sound effects from the featuring film are used to entice the targeted audience. It also engages the audience and urges them to listen to the voice over. The music used on a radio trailer gives an insight of what genre the film is going to be. 

Lines from the Film
