(didn't have a copy of the entire trailer, so just my part is posted).

I researched the E3 2008 trailer for God of war 3. I used elements of the professional example to improve my own trailer, in particular I was impressed with the fly-bys of water and other scenery seen in the professional trailer, I incorporated moving water in my trailer because of this.

in direct comparison with the professional example, the professional trailer is far superior which is expected, the full team paradox trailer, did not play out very well, many of the different scenes were drastically different in style, which resulted in the trailer playing out like an obscure animation. whilst the professional example had a consistent style which played out very nicely.

I also liked the part towards the end of the professional example where the head of kratos (the main character in GOW) is seen speaking, I incorporated the idea of having a short dramatic speaking role into my part of the final trailer.
