Promotion package for new film

I think this task of making a trailer, website homepage and poster is the best one out of the three for our group. There are precise elements and technical skills needed to create these and as a group I believe we have these. We all have experience in software's such as Photoshop and iMovie, both we would use for this task.
Following are film trailers I have looked at and believe we can re create certain scenes if not all of them.

This is a horror film based on a mirror that kills people. The majority of the scenes in this trailer are in a room with the mirror and lots of cameras, this we can do. We can re create most of the scenes in this if not all of this because of the basic camera angles they've used to make it look like the actor is filming most of it. The close camera shots and angles give the viewer the impression they are there with the actors and make the scenes exciting and tempting. There also isn't many actors in this trailer which is an advantage for us as we are limited to the amount of people we have.

This is a romance film based on two teenagers who both have cancer and have had cancer. The main reason I chose this trailer is because the majority of it is just them two together that we can do, I have to say myself that some of the scenes are going to be very hard to re create and time consuming but I like the range of different locations as it keeps the viewer interested but we don't have to use all the scenes. Most of the camera shots are quite simple and close up to capture the love they share. The trailer also has a voice over of the main actor, this we can do in iMovie adding professionalism to it.

This is the final film trailer I've chosen and its an action film about a woman who gets drugs planted inside it but they leak and eventually she is able to use 100% of her brains capacity. If we did the whole trailer we would need a lot of actors but we can quite easily re create most of the scenes on the cameras provided for us and using the software we have access to as well we can really make this look professional. They use a variety of different locations in this trailer, different countries as well which obviously we couldn't do but we can attempt to re create them as well as using effects and sounds. The whole trailer I found put me in suspense and that's what I'd like our trailer to do the audience, so they don't forget it.
