My Neighbor Totoro trailer

My Neighbor Totoro trailer

Based on suggestions by the class and the teacher, many changes were made to cut 2. Each cut has its own good and bad points. Comment on which one you think is better.

This is my own trailer cut for one of my favorite Studio Ghibli films, My Neighbor, Totoro (となりのトトロ).

I’ve always thought that Disney did Ghibli a disservice by releasing Totoro as a straight-to-DVD project. Even the trailer for it, bundled with other Ghibli DVDS, is cut with this in mind. My trailer was cut as if it was destined for the U.S. theaters.

Cut as the second assignment for a class learning Avid.
