is a short video that gives you a sneak peek or preview of a movie before it's released. It's like a "teaser" to get you excited about watching the whole film!

In a trailer, you'll see some of the coolest, most exciting scenes from the movie, but not the whole story. It's like the trailer is showing just enough to make you curious and want to know what happens next. It usually has music, fast editing, and sometimes voiceover narration to make it feel exciting or dramatic.

Conflict/Problem: Show the main problem or challenge.

Climax/Action: Add some exciting scenes or moments to grab attention.

Conclusion: End with a cliffhanger or a big question to keep the audience curious.

Trailers often use music and sound effects to create excitement or suspense.

Action music (fast beats, strong rhythm) works well for action trailers.

Suspenseful music can make your audience feel nervous or curious.
