We decided to make a highlights trailer, this means we pick out clips from the entire film rather than focusing on a certain scene / time. We decided highlights was a good fit for our trailer because we could show off some of the special effects that we wanted to include. In a scene trailer only spanning a portion of the film we could only really show one or 2. Making a highlights trailer also makes it easy to convey the narrative whereas a scene trailer you could only really get an idea of what is happening at one specific point and not the big picture.
At the time of planning this trailer there is a news article about Suicide Pact's in Japan. This gave us the idea for the film since we could tie in to a real life scenario, which -in my opinion- makes the trailer more effective since this is a situation that actually happened.
