The use of text in trailers is mainly used for the replacement of a Narrator/ Voice over. The text used in the trailers is usually to give the audience information on the film for example it will say something about the location where the film is set and it may even talk about the reputation of said location. Using text in the replacement of a voice over is cheaper and easier but non the less i think it it outdated and awful. i think that if you cant get your story across using acting or dialogue then your story isn't going to be a very good one. if anything the use of text in trailers is just to be used as a filler so they can make their trailer longer with no real help towards the story or the promotion of the film. in my trailer i wont be using text or a voice over as i feel that it will look awful so i don't want to risk losing marks over it. i will only use text in my trailer if my target audience strongly requests or recommends it as that will be the only way i would ever consider using text.
