Trailer Analysis - Juno (2007)




The trailer for 'Juno' shows age and culture through a variety of ways including mes-en-scene, sound and cinematography.

When we are first introduced to Juno she is shown using a burger phone, which shows the imaturity of her even though she is in a serious situation for her age group. The bedroom which she is shown in has posters plastered all over the walls which helps convey her age to the audience as a adult rooms are normally shown as being simplistic and organised. The lack of stereotypical girly colours help show that Juno is not a normal teenage girl as she doesnt fit into the stereotype of girls her age.

On the other hand when the trailer cuts to he rfrined on the phone we are shown her bedroom. She also has posters on her walls but they are of men and her room is a pink colour. This suggests that she fits into the mainstream society for teenage girls. The friend comes across as stereotypically girly as she is shown wearing a tight vest top compaired to Juno who is shown in over sized sweaters.

When the inter titles are shown in the trailer the background is a bright vibrant colour which implies that it is a comical movie. The energetic colour could also help give the audience an insight about the characters personalities.

Juno's parents are presented as being laid back and casual as they are shown in comfortable clothing.

Looking at Juno allowed me to see how a comedic Coming of Age is presented to an audience, This is something that I will reflect on when creating my trailer so I know what will be appropriate to include.
