Spaghetti Western Trailers

The wonderful thing about these trailers is their absolute solid iconic feel.

The deep voice that does all of the trailers with such clearly written speech and music from Ennio Morrecone ties the genre together seamlessly, maybe with the exception of 'A Fist Full of Dynamite', which to be honest was pretty awful.

The Graphics of these old trailers have some good elements. Monotone photographs of iconic scenes and characters. They are used in such a way that it would be possible to re-create the feel of the genre quite simply in a program such as After Effects.









Key elements to consider:

The Cigar
The 6 Shooter
The Hat
The Poncho
The Boots
The Speech
The Music
The Railroad
The Silence
