Sound, logos and texts used in a TV trailer

In a TV trailer there are many sounds which are used such as Non diegetic and diegetic sound. Non diegetic sound is the sound of someone or something that is not on the screen such as: backing track, person talking ( but not on the screen), crying, breathing but not on the screen and many more. Diegetic sound is the sound of someone or something which appears on the screen such as: a person seen crying on the screen, person taking on the screen, car noises on the screen and many more. Trailers have music to it depending on what sort of genre is: so for example if the trailer was a horror the trailer would have music which is tense and makes the audience jump.

Also there are many logos used in TV trailers such as the logo of the company of which TV channel the trailer will be seen on. Mostly the "BBC" and "ITV" logos are used the most, these logos i think are more popular. This logo is usually seen at the beginning and then at the end. The other logos which are used in different trailers are the logos of different social media icons such as: Facebook, Twitter,and Instagram and maybe you-tube. Trailers normally have these logos at the end of the trailer. They have these logos at the end so that the audience can share the trailer or visit there website and learn more, or maybe visit the website to see other trailers which have been created by the TV channel.

The trailer uses a lot of texts, usually in the middle of the trailer and the beginning and at the end. The texts are used at the beginning because they show the name of the trailer. They are used in the middle because they give the audience a hint of what is happening and what the trailer is about, the text in the middle also may have a question to leave the audience/ viewers thinking. Also in some trailers texts are used in the middle to tell the audience the names of the main characters,this is only if the trailer has shown the main characters. Texts are used at the end because it shows the name of the different social media icons and also the title of the trailer reappears, and also it may have a question at the end.
