Ironman Superhero Trailer Analysis

This is the trailer for the film 'Iron Man'. Iron Man is a successful superhero film. The narrative is about a billionaire industrialist who is captured and forced to build a devastating weapon. He builds a high tech suit of armor and escapes instead. This is how the superhero Iron Man was created.
The trailer starts with a dramatic action song called 'Hell above water' by Curve. This genre of song implies that the trailer is going to be action packed with the possibly of many fight scenes and explosions. The trailer ends with the iconic Iron Man theme tune. I intend for my superhero to have a recognisable theme song like this.
The billionaire begins to talk to the army at 0:13 seconds onwards and so it is suggestive that there will be war or corruption of some kind within the film that he will be involved in. We see the construction of the suit being built with many mid shots and close ups of the main protagonist. The sweat and look of determination of his face emphasises the hard work he has put into this suit.
 At 0.12 seconds we can see the title of Marvel studios. We can tell that the film is going to be a Superhero film as that is what Marvel specialise in.
This trailer is not a teaser trailer as the plot is outlined well within this trailer whereas my coursework piece will be a trailer and the storyline will be mysterious and ambiguous to the audience.
