Review Of Ring Trailer

To begin with this trailer is in a chronological order and this would help to show what this story is actually going to be about, having said that the clips shown don't give away to much vital information for the film and that therefore starts to create and build tension for the viewer.
With this you can use Laura Mulvey's ideas on representation for the ring trailer that we made as it actually seem to focus on the male gaze that she explained. In the trailer there is a pretty/attractive young women who is the main character and we in many ways can or are indeed objectifying her.
Todorov's particular theory can apply directly to this trailer. To begin with there is a stable equilibrium which is quickly followed by a force that creates disequilibrium and finally the recognition that this disruption has taken place. After this however the trailer is no longer in chronological order meaning that the resolution and new equilibium is not shown but again this makes the audience want to watch the film.
