The Romance Of Loneliness
- Independent production companies above title.
- Actors names below title (not very well known)
Conventional for independent.
- Mostly black and white with pops or red (boots & telephone box)
and orange.
- Woman on chair in colour.
- Unclear handwritten font (reflects identity theme of finding oneself and makes it more personal), some letters lower case and some capital. Clearly shows rough film style.
- Woman in a chair blatantly depicts loneliness (comedy).
- Opens with prod. Company logo.
- Banjo/guitar strumming western country soundtrack creates comedic effect as it cuts to the woman with a run down car seemingly in the middle of nowhere.
- Audience left to guess who, where, what and why with first establishing shot.
- Independent comedy drama genre established from first shot.
- Cuts between shots like these. Photo (left) and short take of the arrival of a woman (bottom)
- Similar in framing, the colours and general image/setting are the same. (Naturally lit wide shots)
- Fragmented but carry the same theme and story.
- Balloons show the childlike nature of friends and growing up/coming of age. (Nostalgia)
- Woman arriving blends into colours of frame and appears swallowed by surroundings. Lower down centre frame makes her looks new/finding herself/vulnerability.
- Contrasting short take and snap shot/photo edited together again but very different.
- Intimate/friendly feelings stirred, pinks/whites/soft lighting. Women look similar. (Centre frame in wide shot)
- Similar image again both wide shots.
- (Below) Women look separated, bleak colours, age difference representing different times but same themes
- Edited in a way that mimics remembering a memory and contrasts in loneliness and friendship again.
- Careful framing that makes the overall trailer flow cohesively.
- Difference in soft/low key and harsh but natural lighting throughout the trailer.
- Difference in lighting again showing a difference in time period or different relationships.
- Naturalistic way of marginalising different relationships.
- Mix between handwritten/ink and capital block letters.
- Actors underlined keeping handwritten personal feel to the trailer. (Letter to the audience)
- Ending with release info. (Too vague for our film however)
