HERE ARE SOME TIPS ON HOW TO PREPARE.
At this stage the way to think about it is in story terms – use the pitch as you starting point.
Write a really short idea which you think will work for the audience you need to reach.
Next expand this to some simple plot points in your brief synopsis – the twists in the story – hero falls in love, villain kills hero’s mother etc. showdown between villain and hero – do you get the idea?
Finally, pick some references – types of movie trailers you like which might give a bit of the feel of what you want.
At this stage you DO NOT have to write either the story or all the scenes for the trailer. Perhaps you might like to describe one or two key moments – and suggest the atmosphere - show us pictures, play us music, act bits of it out. Help us 'SEE' your trailer in our mind's eye.
Don't worry about practicality yet - there will be time for that later.
