The Art of the Trailer
November 20, 2006

While movies have been a giant in the entertainment industry since early 20th century, trailers and teasers for those movies have become a big player in the industry in their own right. As a marketing tool, the trailer has become vital for success of a film and while some people make sure to get to a cinema early to see the trailers, iTunes and other sites now promote downloading of trailers for your iPod.

We at the State of Art have decided to separate the clichéd and awful from the brilliant trailers released in the last year. What follows is a list of the top ten trailers (or teasers) in that time. Click on the film title below to view the trailer.
