Mean girls trailer:

Mean girls is a high concept film, with a big budget and 'stars' such as Lindsay Lohan and Rachel Mcadams being the main two characters. It has the stereotypical conventions of any teen chick flick with a love interest that doesn't always go right and the 'it' gang. There are several sharp wipe transitions in the trailer making it quick pace and grabbing your attention. The voice over in the trailer is effective as it introduces the characters before you have seen the film creating an initial relationship and making the audience want to know more. The drum beats towards the end of the trailer create suspense and accompany the second long clips to build your anticipation. The text towards in the trailer is limited and only states the title, stars and when the film is being released, the colour pink for the text 'girls' and 'spring' relates to the fact it is a chick flick as it is stereotyped as a girly colour.
