Bad Education.

How does the trailer use media language to engage the audience?

The majority of camera angles used during conversations between characters are close-up shots that clearly show who is participating in that conversation. This close view of the characters makes the audience feel more engaged in the conversations and give it more of a personal feeling. during some conversations the shot changes causing it to become non-diegetic, the shots then usually show visual content relevant to that conversation often with comedic effect, this then gives the viewer a sense of instant gratification as they are being given a visual indication to a possible punchline. Quick cuts used in the trailer allow more visual content to be shown and along with the similarly paced music it creates an exciting atmosphere around the trailer. The mise-en-scene is stereotypical of a high school creating a possible sense of familiarity in the audience therefore increasing immersion. The majority of teachers are shown as being stereotypical with their formal attire but all but one of them are shown as being immature through the dialogue, this would attract the audiences attention as it goes against conformity and increase interest.

How does the trailer represent young people?
The trailer depicts the students fairly mature in comparison with some of the teachers. This is shown through the teachers mainly as they are for the most part depicted as being childish and immature while some of the students show the opposite traits such as the one slapping the teacher in order for him to snap out of it and think clearly whereas it would stereotypical be the other way around albeit with a bit less slapping. They still show typical teenage traits such as excitement at the sexual dance shown in the trailer as well as the two stereo typical "chav" characters bickering over the others sisters sexual orientation and how going to university apparently affects it.
