1984 Trailer
1984
Video Modern
Trailer 2020
Part of my trailer project
- breathing some new life into older, forgotten or overlooked
films.
Mainly to spread awareness of these great films
and hopefully inspire more people to seek them out.
Director - Michael Radford
Synopsis - In a totalitarian future society, a man,
whose daily work is re-writing history,
tries to rebel by falling in love.
The official trailer really just didn't do much for this film
in my opinion.
I wanted to at least try to create something
that felt authentic to the film,
something that felt Orwellian and ominous
and gave the feeling of a foreboding future.
