@stripesz.6650 8 месяцев назад

What makes all stars 6 a very special trailer for me was the fact that it was released during the later times of the pandemic. Those times were dark and depressing, and the trailer’s theme being about the sun and sunlight, the color palette being bright red and yellow really raised my spirits up after watching it. The Beginning as its soundtrack is really fitting song for a lot of people finding their footing again after going through the lockdowns. It just radiates hope and positivity.

@lanzy9411 8 месяцев назад

omg. that was such an amazing way to describe AS6's trailer. I used to put AS3's trailer as the best AS promo trailer since I loved the whole vintage golden era/aesthetic meets chaotic vibe they went with, yet the way you described AS6's trailer perfectly defined the feelings I and probably others got when we see AS6's trailer, especially when it first came out. It radiated Hope and that there was Light at the end of the tunnel. I feel like AS6 for me has now the best AS trailer, even maybe higher than other normal seasons' trailers. Bravo

@Redonx 8 месяцев назад

I'm sure someone has already mentioned it in the comments by now, but Season 7's promo was influenced by an at-the-time very influencial fashion photographer Terry Richardson. Terry was known for his extremely stripped back, candid photoshoots with harsh flash photography that felt kind of edgy and 'real' compared to the usually very high-production fashion shoots. In that sense, I understand completely why they chose to go this direction given it's the "fashion" season, but it kind of fell flat (even at the time of release). On top of that, Terry was also a fucking pervert and has had a lot of accusations of s*xual misconduct from people he worked with (particularly models) and has since been kind of ex-communicated from the fashion scene, so while I get why they made this choice, it still kind of sucks lol

@ventrue7 8 месяцев назад

@Mysanthropiya 8 месяцев назад

I don't think All Stars 7 needed a promo tbh. We all know the winners and the excitement about the season finally happening, plus the publicity they did were more than enough to get people hyped. We also know what to expect from an all winners season - pure talent. So there was really no need for a promo in my opinion

@that1niceguy246 8 месяцев назад

I don't even know why we'd need a promo for a cast that just speaks for itself. Winners, best of the best, there to win the crown - why even bother, it's just a short introduction to something that doesn't need it.

@raisercruise7408 8 месяцев назад

There’s something about promos where producers want to make every queen look the best they ever can and it really shows how each queen is amazing in their own right. That preps the viewers to be ready to watch what happens when they compete against each other in their own gloriousness. All stars 7 would’ve given that chance to see them like that more compared to usual seasons imo.

For season 7, I initially thought it was meant to evoke a police line up. Granted, I think its more of a suggestiton in terms of the setup and it doesn't really deliver on that concept at all, but it gives more of that vibe when it's all of them together. I actually think a proper execution of this idea would be perfect for an upcoming season given how drag is being perceived in this hellscape that is our current political reality.

I vividly remember bursting out laughing the first time I heard it back then.
