Trailer 3 - Insidious 2

Insidious 2

I am going to be looking at the Theatrical Trailer for 'Insidious 2' and analysing the conventions of genre.


  • Contrapuntal sound - happy music at the start to give impression everything is good, which will disorientate the audience and reflects the feelings of the characters.
  • Setting - the grandma's house, by itself.
  • Diegetic sound of a child's toy - creepy.
  • Enhanced sound effects - shocks the audience.
  • Contrapuntal sound - child's lullaby 
  • Non-diegetic - creepy sinister 
  • Fast editing at end - slows down after to allow the audience to process what they've witnessed.
