TEXT CARDS:

Text cards are often used within a trailer to create suspense, or help the audience understand a little about the film without giving too much away. Most film trailers use this as it's not just based on the genre of the trailer/film. Text cards are normally on a plain background, not over a scene, this is because it adds more effect when they're fading in and out, as it makes the audience want to know the next one.

In our trailer we are going to use text cards to add suspense to the fast-paced horror genre.
