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?
