"The Little Prince" International Trailer

 

The International trailer for "The Little Prince" directed by Mark Osbourne has finally been released! Unfortunately for English speakers, it's in french but I'm assuming a English trailer will be released soon.

It's great to finally start to see trailers and promotional materials be released to the public, this movie was amazing to work on and hopefully it will be received well around the world.

"The Little Prince" First Japanese Teaser

Here's the first of many posts that will be "The Little Prince" related over the next several months as more and more start to become released.

A Japanese teaser (that can only be described as the teaser-iest of teasers) has been released. Showing one shot of the fantastic stop-motion work and one tiny slivered sampled section of a huge amazingly animated 3d shot done by Tania Simeons.




Here's the translation :

"Epic" - new trailer

Really looking forward to seeing this.

Music from Trailers

Trailers are such an important part of the marketing of a movie, and the choice of music that is used in the trailer is equally as important. Best thing about it for me is hearing as little as 20 seconds of the song used in a trailer and thinking "Wow...I must find out who plays that", which leads to finding new bands.

Here's a short list of music that has featured in trailers recently that I have found new music to listen to from.

"Snow Patrol - The Lightning Strike" is featured in Dreamworks "Epic" trailer as well as "Act of Valor"


"Florence + the Machine - Seven Devils" was featured in the season 2 trailer for HBO's "Game of Thrones"


"Imagine Dragons - Radioactive" is featured in the latest trailer for "The Host"


"Nico Vega - Beast" was featured in the latest trailer for "Bioshock Infinite"

Despicable Me 2 trailer

New trailer for Despicable Me 2 was released, with more minion awesomeness. I love how it can make me want to go see it straight away, even without showing the main character of Gru in both trailers so far.


Love it, can't wait for this!

Frequently Used Trailer Cues

After the crazy huge success of "Inception" and it's "brrrrrr....brrrrrrr!!!" trailer soundtrack (entitled Mind Heist by Zack Hemsey), everytime someone at work loads up a trailer for the "up and coming blockbuster hollywood movie", it's usually edited to similar "brrrrr.........brrrrrrrr!!!" thematic cues. And someone usually mentions "oh they're using the BRRR BRRR Inception song!"

Trailers in the past went through phases of popular cues as well. For instance, Clint Mansell's "Requiem for a Dream" theme and James Horners "Bishop's Countdown" from "Aliens".

So after some quick googling, I came across many links about "frequently used trailer cues" like this one >

Here are a few of my favourite scores that have ended up on trailers, or just amazing pieces of music compositions:

James Horner's "Bishop's Countdown" from "Aliens"


Clint Mansell's "Death is the Road to Awe" from "The Fountain"


John Murphy's "Kaneda's Death (Part 2)" from "Sunshine"


Mark Mancina's "Speed" theme

Ice Age 4 - Continental Drift Trailer

I love all the Ice Age movies. In my opinion, one of the few animation sequels that get progressively better and more fun. Can't wait to see this!

ParaNorman Trailer

I love stop-motion animation, and I love monster/ghost movies for kids (yay zombies!). "ParaNorman" directed by Chris Butler & Sam Fell, ticks all those boxes. I'm all for animations having more of darker undertones and looks to them and still being fun. It makes me nostalgic for the movies from the 80's and early 90's.

Looking forward to this one!
