Content Analysis: Coach Carter
When I analyzed the trailer this is what I found:
1. Virtually all the main characters are men, the coach is male, and the basketball team is male.
2. The voice over only talks every now and then to introduce certain parts of the film that make the whole plot real.
3. The action is the trailer is mostly struggle, fighting, arguing, discipline and determination. The idea of trying to make something from nothing is portrayed.
4. There is gangster type music playing and a lot of sounds effects used to display more emotion and to give more emphasis.
5. Accent wise it is a distinct American accent (black American) with the gangster type talk, very different to the London accents of the Wimbledon trailer, the accents are associated with that sports that are played.
6. Costumes are just stereotypically gangster, American, and basketball clothes
7. The sports become professional but start very amateur to show what a good Coach Carter is.
8. The plot points are revealed that they are trying to make these boys into athletes and accomplished men in a tough neighborhood.
9. It doesn’t end on a cliffhanger
