MTV has a Shot-By-Shot Analysis of the new Eclipse Trailer.
Check it all out here.
Here is a little excerpt:
Shot 1: Establishing shot of the La Push/ Forks area. Ain’t it pretty?
Shot 2: A dire-looking Jacob Black, walking toward the camera.
Shot 3: “Jacob,” Bella asks, standing next to Edward. “What are you doing here?”
Shot 4: “I’m here to warn you,” he responds.
Shot 5: A close-up of a pale-but-earnest Edward, ready to throw down with the wolf-man. “Just leave,” he says. “Now.”
Shot 6: “She has a right to know,” Jacob responds, eliciting a look of concern from Bella and a simple “What?” that will soon open an entire Pandora’s box of drama.
Shot 7: Welcome to the city! “We’ve been tracking this situation in Seattle for a while,” Edward says over a shot of the metropolis, a very different sight for a “Twilight” film.
Shot 8: A person (who appears to be Riley) runs for his life down a dark alley and then is struck down by an unseen attacker. Edward continues to speak of “unexplained disappearances, killings” while Bella looks on in concern.
Shot 9: Have you been wondering what a David Slade-directed “Twilight” movie will look like? At this point in the trailer, our best glimpse yet begins. Ominous music plays over a dark scene as we see a burning car, bloodthirsty teens and a glimpse of apocalyptic chaos that feels like it belongs in a zombie movie or something.
Shot 10: “Somebody is creating an army,” Carlisle explains. Gee, who could that be?
love it. better trailer than the first. more balanced. and the best part??? well, MTV’s commentary on Shot 22 – Beyonce.
