INSPIRATION: Whitechapel Intro
Using inspiration from the intro - up to 00:57, the old archive shots integrated into the intro, the old, vintagey looking footage of notes, propaganda, maps, landmarks, people etc. Using shots like these in our own trailer will make the cult look as if it's well founded, as if it's been around for years, perhaps even a conspiracy laying unnoticed beneath history making it seem all the more dangerous and real. Obviously there are copyright issues in using other people's old footage so we will have to trail through our parent's and grandparent's old films or find a way to give new footage we can collect the same vintagey feel.
I think the editing in the intro is very clever - using flares of lights and reflections to transition between shots and the slowing down and distortions. One shot I find particularly effective is the shot at roughly 00:46 where the camera is between four men's shoulders, all dark and suited at night walking along a street and the handheld quality of this shot moving up and down with the rhythm of their walking.
