Yes.

What would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
I would expect a brief synopsis of the plot, flash-points of the movie (short clips). Text is very important for showcasing the Director's name, Actors and Producers. The text should grow from a point towards the camera. Deep voice-over.

What music would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Semi-Rock, Punk, Elements of Ballard.

Yes.

What would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Tension, gripping action and a clear story. No flashbacks, only text is presented as a watermark in the corner showing the name of the film. No voice over since that is childish, like the toy story trailer.

Rock/ Alternative. Maybe Jazz.

Are you interested in Crime films?
Fairly, If there is one on TV I would watch it to the end.

What would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Quick clips, Explosions, Action. I would want to see the set up but not the actual heist since that would ruin the film. Character's background has to be in there too, but not the focus. Sleek text that appears very quickly. A voice-over would be useful to explain some of the story.

What music would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Slow music. Builds up to the action. Starts and Ends loud. Heavy guitars and pounding drums in the background.

Yes

What would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Police chases, flashbacks, groups of criminals- at lest four criminals in the gang. It should show the story and set up, with the start of the heist- some action scenes interlaced. Text should appear on a black background in white text. Generic police radio chatter and a voice-over may seem cliche but are a must.

What music would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Fast, pulsing music with a slow build-up, but it depends on the scene.

No

What would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
Lots of action that provide intrigue. No flashbacks or story- just action. Text should show Actors names and Directors- finish with the Film's name and just flash in. Maybe add a voice-over.

What music would you expect in a Crime Film trailer?
A Big band playing Dramatic instrumental music, speeding up until the end where it cuts out suddenly.
