Quantum of Solace trailer analysis

The music whilst James Bond is walking around is quite and sinister to create suspension and to represent the thriller theme. When he is in combat and there are action scenes, the music gets a lot more dramatic and picks up a higher beat which represents the action side of the thriller. Furthermore, as there are jumpcuts in the trailer, the music follows the same pattern with jumping between different beats. The music is synchronised with the edits for example, when James Bond kicks an enemy, the music gets a lot louder and intense to fit in with the fight.

In addition, the trailer uses diegetic sounds when the characters are speaking and also when James Bond is on the motorbike, this adds an effect to the audience to entice them to watch the film as it contains action such as chases and stunts using a motorbike.
