"You start to kind of get a sense of what the movie's going to be..." We love movie trailers! For the past 17 years, FirstShowing has been writing about and discussing movie trailers for films of all kinds. This video made by Vox debuted a few months ago, and it's worth a watch if you want to learn more about the art of cutting trailers. It's a 12-min interview with a trailer editor from the company Buddha Jones, a Hollywood marketing agency that cuts many big trailers. He talks about editing a few famous trailers - for Nope and 10 Cloverfield Lane - and the various tricks and techniques used. I appreciate how much he discusses sound design and music, and how important these are in crafting an effective trailer. I wish he spoke more about editing choices, why certain footage is chosen over other shots. However, this is still informative & amusing.
