FEATURES OF MULTIMODAL TEXT	DESCRIPTION OF FEATURE IN TRAILER	ANALYSIS OF IMPACT ON AUDIENCE
Written text on screen	The writing say 'From Ridley Scott'  in a common type of text but its sharp giving it solid edges.	The type of text can depend on how serious they want to make the film for example bubbly text would be aimed more towards a younger audience whereas this type of text it aimed for a more mature audience.
Spoken language	The spoken language in this trailer is English	Since English is a widely used language thousands of people would be able to watch it without having to read subtitles.
Moving images	In this part of the trailer it gives the idea that the people on the planet are on where the last people where on in the Alien without giving too much away.	This give teasers of what people can expect in the film without the full length letting people judge to go and see it or not.
Sound effects	The sound of nature, people and sudden alien attacks makes for an action packed trailer. Different effects placed in a scene can make for something horrifying.	This can affect how people view the trailer as less distorted sound effects and more natures sound effects can make it seem quite childish.
Music	The sound at the start of the trailer is nice and clam showing peace between people whereas later on the music picks up becoming fast pace action type music.	This can play a trick on the audience as it makes them think that its not an action movie but more a romance but them in a split second puts them on the edge of their seats.
