Due to the changes in my story I decided to increase the length of the trailer. I've done this because firstly it will allow my trailer to feel like it has its own narrative. This is because the first half of the trailer consists of the creepers first victim being killed in his "trap" which is essentially an empty hallway. In the second half of the trailer the second victim will be systematically stalked and will eventually be led into his trap. But unlike the beginning of the trailer I will not reveal exactly what happened to her. However at the end of the trailer I will have a short clip after the name of the movie is revealed which will show blood on the creepers hand. Therefore showing that something that something bad has happened, but also leaving the rest to the audiences imaginations.
How long should do I want the trailer?
I'm aiming at the trailer being around the 2:20/2:20 mark. my justification for this is that other horror trailers like the recent "scream 4" also had a trailer with a similar length.
