Cloverfield Hi-Resolution Trailer Shot By Shot

11/19/2007 |

Posted by Dave and Thomas

A quick viewing of the new Hi-Resolution Cloverfield trailer had something strike me as odd. I have yet to check with UnFiction to see what all they dug up, but hopefully some of these can be useful.

First off, did they redo the entire scene where Rob enters his Farewell Party?

Sure enough they did.

The opening shot of both trailers shows Rob entering a surprise party. In the latest trailer his hair is sticking up a little and he's got a new, geeky friend.

Most telling are the touch ups done to the Statue of Liberty's head. Note the glossy look in the new trailer with the added claw marks. Also, a muted green look is added to the trailer instead of the original , reddish street light look

Rob introduces himself. The image is blurred and some digital code-looking jargon covers the screen.

Destruction of the city.

Jets fly from explosion in city.

Cell phones still work. Rob reaches Beth.

FDNY Paramedics crew helps victims.

Escape from New York. People flee across Brooklyn Bridge.

Military hospital with victims.

Flee the city. Someone shouts out to head away from the center of the city.

Inside store, surrender/arrest?

MP/soldier with blurred face. Rob to left?

Arrested or sick?

Rob helps Marlena through rubble.

Victims aftermath

Rob and Hud in store, hiding and saying "it's alive."

Windows crash

Hazmat camp, Marlena being taken.

More code. Hazmat scrub down?

Evacuating to helicopters

Armed soldiers with Night vision

Cloverfield Monster walks past buildings.

City in ruins

Fleeing medical area after something crashes near ceiling

Escape with soldier

Rob has some gunk on his shirt.

Entering Hazmat/Military tent

Donuts and tanks. Soldiers on the attack.

Running to safety in subway.

Hud goes down

Noises heard in subway

Fleeing dark hallway

Soldiers attack

Soldiers attack Cloverfield Monster.

Bridge collapses. Note Time of 9:56. Next night?

Anonymous said...: At the part were the 2 hazmat members (that people thought were "giant rats")are holding that woman, if you take this part frame by frame and look at her you can clearly see her stomach get progressively bigger each frame. I'm going to safely say that indeed there are smaller "monsters" cause having a disease thats going to just blow you up is dumb. Also this is kinda far out there but when rob is with the 2 girls and they are in that dark allay way, that noise in that back round sounds like wings to me.......I was just thinking, if you were a 200ft monster.....wouldn't you kind be easy to find, cause in a lot of the clips the monster is no were to be found just lot of destruction;leading me to think this monster might be able to fly. In the still of the monster it kinda looks like the monster might have wings on its lower/mid section(maybe its just me).; November 19, 2007 at 1:39 PM
Anonymous said...: Yeah, the woman looks like she has some kind of infection that is making her expand.

The smaller monster theory is probably a good one, although this will make it very similar to that terrible Godzilla movie...

The smaller monsters probably have wings, and that would explain the buzzing you hear when those three people are in the alleyway.; November 21, 2007 at 7:30 AM

What is Cloverfield?

Welcome to 1-18-08 Project Cloverfield Blog.

Cloverfield is the J.J. Abrams (Lost, Alias) produced monster flick directed by Matt Reeves. Get caught up on all the Cloverfield news including the viral world of Tagruato, TIDOwave, and Slusho!? And now Aladygma?

However, I love viral campaigns. Cloverfield taught me the fun of being involved with the viral world of movies and TV. That's why I'd like to branch out this site to cover some of the major viral campaigns as they are developing. Feel free to drop me a line or tip on any you find interesting.

Welcome to Cloverfield

Very few facts emerged from the viral campaign that was Cloverfield. It all started after a short, teaser trailer for Cloverfield appeared with the Transformers movie in early July of 2007. Since then, speculation surrounded what the title of the movie would be (Monstrous, Overnight, etc...) and what the monster really is and why it is tearing up New York City.

A few pictures and covert videos from the film showed up online and there were only a few core facts we knew of including the poster, the teaser trailer, and a few websites at 1-18-08, Tagruato Corp, and Slusho .

In November, the official full-length Cloverfield trailer was released that helped open up the story as well as cement the "Cloverfield" name for the movie. A short glimpse of the Cloverfield Monster was seen but for most people they still had little or no clue as to what it was.

The movie centered around five young New Yorkers throwing their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives. Cloverfield opened the weekend of 1-18-08 and set box office records for a movie in January with a monster take of over $40M. Continue to check back here for updates on the mystery and viral campaigns of Cloverfield.

Get Started with the Cloverfield Viral Marketing

If you're new to the Cloverfield viral world than let's get started. First off, for the beginners let's look at what we're talking about.

Click and hold the mouse to 'grab' an image and move it around. While holding the image, shake it back and forth quickly and it will flip over. Some images have writing on the back.

Slusho This is the Japanese frozen drink made from a secret ingredient gathered from the bottom of the ocean. Slusho gives you a kick and makes you extremely happy. Prior to 1-18-08 Slusho was not sold in the US. However, recent FDA approval gave Slusho clearance to come to the states. Rob Hawkins, the lead character, was recently promoted to vice-president of Slusho and was on his way to Japan the night of the attack. Slusho is owned by the Tagruato Corp. of Japan. Slusho also first made an appearance on J.J. Abrams Alias during a scene where characters buy the drink at a store.

Tagruato This ficticious Japanese company is the parent company of Slusho as well as the Yoshida Medical Research, Bold Futura, and ParafFUN! Wax Distributors. Besides drilling the oceans for Slusho ingredients, Tagruato builds everything from space satellites to medical gear.

T.I.D.O wave An activist group set out to bring to light all the damage Tagruato has done to the envirnoment.

Jamie and Teddy A minor character from the movie, Jamie popped up on a 1-18-08.com picture and the MySpace profiles for the movies characters before getting famous for her "Jamie and Teddy" website. The site is comprised of video journals from Jamie. The site is password protected but can be accessed by the password "jllovesth"
