The whole point in an action film is to keep the audience paying attention and entertained. An action film does this by being high paced and leaves no room for an intake of breath, so to speak. People who like action films are often adrenaline junkies themselves.
So the trailer must be similar, lot of short fast cuts to to give the film a fast pace and to get people's hearts racing. There are several features and techniques that I will use to do this. Audio track that I will use is a heavy guitar and drum song which is fast paced which adds to the tempo of the music. The quick short shots and short titles will create a fast tempo. Hopefully this can create a similar tempo to the Mission Impossible Ghost Protocols trailer which has Eminem-Won't back down as the audio track of which the rap helps to increase the tempo of the trailer.
