These are a few of my questions about comedy film trailers to help me decide what to do for my coursework. I will take all the most popular answers into consideration as obviously it's what my audience wants. I have posted it on my Twitter and Facebook account as everyone I have as friends or followers on there, average at an age of 17 which would be perfect as they're the right age for my target audience. I will post what answers averaged out as the best after I get 30 responses.

The Inbetweeners trailer review
Link to the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3HzTKbsqsY
Things I liked:
- I quite liked the brief over of the series before the film to remind the audience
-A lot of information about the plot of the film
-Subtitles to narrate the film trailer
-Quick fast editing
-Most comedy trailers are 2:30 mins but this is 2:07 but a lot more is packed into the time
Things I disliked:
- Wasn't enough jokes to grab in the readers as they already have a set audience
-Was quite rude in use of language and had a lot of sexual references

Location
As my trailer is going to be about a gang of uncool guys trying to become cool, the key loaction will be at a school where you can immediatly tell who the popular people are, and who the rejects are. I will use my school, Marlwood for this. I am also thinking about a few park clips. If i do include these, I will use the Alveston park due to the size and space it offers.
List of actors for my Film Trailer
-Myself
-Ben Farrell
-Harry Tully
-Harriet Baber
-Scott Alden
-Alex Smith
-Aiden Woodman
The three actors playing the 3 geeky guys is Harry Tully, Alex Smith and I. I have chosen me and these 2 as we all do drama and we all have experiance in playing school kids attempting to fit in with other teenagers. We have got this experiance from GCSE and A-Level drama. The play that will help us adapt our role the most is Grease. We all performed Grease in year 12 where we all played kids at high school fitting in to modern society. Alex Smith played the role of Eugene who is also very geeky in this aswell, so he has the greatest experiance of the three of us and will help pass on tips to Harry and I to maximise the potential of our roles.
Scott Alden and Aiden Woodman is my younger brother and his best friend who are in year 10. Scott has had a lot of experiance in drama plays and out of school acting and so will be able to adapt to the role very quickly. These 2 have a small part at the start of the trailer, where the come onto the camera shot and beat the 3 nerds up for our dinner money. As they are both younger than us, and Aiden is almost half our size, it will be quite amusing to watch. This will helpkick my trailer off with a joke. Harriet Baber and Ben Farrell are the 2 cool kids that the 3 nerds want to be like and to become friendly with. Harriet Baber also does A-level drama and has done GCSE drama so has alot of experiance and knowledge of how to play a roll well.
