Trailer structure

Todorov suggested that conventional narratives are structured in 5 stages.
weather it be a narrative with the genre of horror or action.
  1. Equilibrium - Normality/Balance ( Although not always happy)
  2. Problem introduced /Disruption
  3. Recognition of the problem
  4. Conflict
  5. Resolution


This narrative arrangement can be applied to many typical film narratives.

Heres a couple of films that back up the suggestion of the 5 stages.

eg
Limitless - Action
