GTA V trailer


Recently, Rockstar have released the latest trailer for the much anticipated game Grand Theft Auto 5! In the trailer, it begins with a song by Stevie Wonder called Skeletons, this is a fairly upbeat song that sort of reminds us of the original gangster feel, it almost reminds me of an 80's cop film, it helps set the scene with a great panning shot of the city Los Santos (or Los Angeles as we would know it). From the first establishing shot we can see Rockstar almost showing off how far they have come when it comes to graphics as the render distance shown in this first shot is amazing, the graphical detail looks very good. After showing some jump cuts of various things such as nice cars and nice expensive looking houses we here one of the main protagonists speaking about crime, this also helps to set the scene as we hear him as an almost warning to get out of crime before its too late. We then have a lot of jump cuts showing more of where it is being set and we see nice parts of the city an less nice parts, we are then introduced to the 3 main characters in the game. The first main character who narrates at the start seems to be an almost rich gentleman in his late 40's, we seem to thing he has been involved in crime for a long time and now has a life of luxury and is out of crime for now. The second Character we are introduced to is first seen in a run down poor part of town, he seems to be a poorer man who seems to be pretty mad as we see him beating people up and standing with dead bodies, he seems and we get the feel that he is very angry for some reason. The third and final protagonist i s a black gentleman who also seems quite rich and doing well for himself as he seems quite young, we see he has troubles with his wife as we see them arguing in the trailer. From  this trailer the scene is the city and they are all dressed in relaxed clothes that anyone would wear, the lighting is very bright and it makes the whole area seem nice, colorful and a lot going on, as with the costumes, these are bright, the fact that everything is bright may suggest a lot of wealth and happiness maybe. From the trailer we get a lot of Rockstar's humor as there are many parts that are just what Rockstar would do. Also we get to see a lot of new features and new vehicles and weapons that may be in the game such as quad bikes, jets, attack dogs, new cars, planes and many more, this could show that Rockstar have tried to introduce much more into their game and better features to make it much more interesting. Throughout the trailer there are several establishing shots with a few medium close ups and long shots, hopefully Rockstar will release more to reveal much more in the future.
