trailer analysis

This trailer is for a filmed called Steve Jobs, this film is a biographical drama. The first code we can see of this film  being a drama is the opening speech which is a voice over which is a common code of drama films. After the opening credits to the trailer we see a wide shot with a man in an office setting this shows us that the film is about this man and his struggle in the business world. We then see another wide shot of an audience hall with no one in it, this could leave an enigma of weather the business this man is setting up will fail or not. We then get introduced to a character we know will have prevalence in the movie as he dressed in a suit and is talking to another character with a very good vocabulary. We are also introduced to another character who doesn't hold as much prevalence as he isn't dressed as well or speak as well. We then hear a voice over of a woman and a man having a conversation about how many times the man has let her down. We then see this couple and the man is the poorly dressed man from the beginning conversation with the well dressed man but now he is very well dressed, this could show the transformation he has gone through on his journey or it could show his immediate success. We then see him walking into a room full of people who applaud him this shows his success and respect. We then find out his wealth as another women on the voice over as she explains that his stock in his company is worth 441 million dollars, this is then completely overshadowed by the thought that he is letting his child and her mother go on welfare as she says this the music changes to a more sad and slow tune, He then shouts at the women "shes not my daughter" this shows that he may be unable to have a proper conversation, he also seems a lot more scruffy now. This shows that as soon as problems arise he turns back to what we saw in the beginning of the trailer. We then see a montage of shots always going back to the main character with the music becoming very tense and building up to something important, most of the things being said to the main character are negative therefore showing him in a negative light. We also see the shot get smaller and smaller this is done in editing to create an even more intense scene, it closes in on the main character this is foreshadowing as it show the world closing in on him possibly meaning he is in danger or an aspect of his life is in danger. It then opens up again to the main character but he doesn't look the same this is meant to show his change for the worse over a certain amount of time. We then see lots of people cheering in a crowd and then the main character a child and the mother in the same room, She then challenges him and he lifts a computer which the child was using showing his and her trust that she let him lift away from what she as doing and he makes the point that the computer can be used by everyone even a child. We again then see the main character in a suit which even though his facial expressions are caught in the medium shot he is in trouble but still successful. We then see quick changing shots which shows his failure being evident. In the shots we hear that the main character is being fired and this then sends him into a rage as he believes he built the company, We then hear a women telling him that he should focus on his daughter. We then see him being challenged through a panel of shots by a women about what his plan is which he responds in a very calm and unworried way. We then get the actors come up on the screen which is an attraction for people as they draw in different crowds. This is then when we see the rise of this character again as is reintroduced to his company and people again applauding him this shows his success. We then see lots of close up shots of the main character with the voice over and this then shows the  character in a positive light before the trailer ends.
