Editing techniques: Fast pace, cross-cutting, lots of fades and cut to blacks, animated futuristic inter-texts, CGI and night-cam elements.
Two main soundtracks are used in the trailer. In the beginning, there is a quiet soft string instrumental which builds and changes into loud dramatic tension building techno beat.

There are two main characters and some alien monsters.
The trailer has 13 inter-text titles. They included some vague narrative explanations (eg. 'now they're residents).
The trailer includes a billing block, ratings, name of the film and 'coming soon'.
The target audience for the film would be males 14-25. The BBFC certified the film as a 12A.
The trailer is not in chronological order.

Very apocalyptic vibes.
