Battlefront 3 Teaser Trailer analysis

Star Wars Battlefront

E3 2013 Teaser

Analysis

We open with a view of just show and a blizzard from a first person / Point of View perspective all we can see is show and some burning debris, the only sound we can hear is the ambient sound of heavy wind and footsteps, and the extremely heavy breathing of the perspective we are seeing it all through, this makes us assume that the person we a watching this from is injured and in some sort of trouble.

continuing with his slow paced walking we hear a very distinctive sound of a laser blast, as the blast hits the ground next to him the camera shakes in a hand held almost documentary styled hand held action, we hear more laser blasts still with no music, all ambient sound, shortly after hearing the laser blasts be hear an explosion, and we see from through the blizzard a snow speeder flies through the snow and past the camera as we hear an explosion behind us.

 

 

After we see the snow speeder fly past through the blizzard we see the immediately recognizable hoof of a n AT-AT smash against the floor, the camera starts to fade to black and upon the screen titles appear reading ‘STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT’ a long awaited sight for the fans of the series.

 

 

This trailer is just a teaser, not giving any information or real view of the game all it gives is the assurance that the game is happening and is therefore starting the drip feed effect for the fans, the fans want more than the 34 second long teaser, but with ‘EA’ knowing this they will slowly give the fans more trailers and more looks at art and the gameplay until they release a real gameplay trailer approximately a year before the game comes out leaving the fans interested and wanting more until they know they have to have the game
