A-Team Marketing campaign-

  • A website - pre release and post release plus blue ray film site
  • A teaser trailer - a short set of clips from the film to hook the audience
  • A normal trailer - containing the best action sequences and lines from the film, it used the normal codes and conventions of A-A trailers
  • An individual trailer - a short clip was released on each character
  • Posters - placed everywhere, these either had a member of the team on it or the four of them, with the tag line
Products/Promotion-

  • Old tv series episodes were made into new box sets - this increased revenue and got older audiences interested
  • DVD and Blu-ray copies of the film, including uncut versions and extended action versions were released
  • The Soundtrack from the original tv series was remastered and released for download.  This was great as older audiences who watched the tv series could remember the tune and were drawn in. 
  • Miniature figurines and die cast models were produced for the younger audiences to play with and for those collecting model, this increased revenue
  • The cast featured/took part in numerous photo shoots
Publicity- 
  • Film premier with the full cast of the film
  • Also attended by many other stars
  • Finished of by the A-Team van, A Tank and A Helicopter 
In my opinion, the marketing campaign was brilliant. The combination of individual and group posters and trailers created the perfect atmosphere for an action adventure film. The advertising accompanied by the premier was loved by all action adventure watchers due to the high levels of testosterone, crazy ideas, and the personalities surrounding it.

IDEA

  • X is in the army
  • He is mistaken and accused of drug smuggling, he therefore goes AWOL, FBI agent Y is sent after him, Y happens to be a friend
  • X is trying to find the rug smugglers who set him up - leads him to Miami
  • It is the Miami - Columbia Run
  • X finds cartel
  • X and Y find their way in - street racing - win race and your in
  • Z is the front man (woman) for the gang
  • Y gets romantically involved with Z
  • X and Y get in on a drug run
  • Z finds out what X and Y is doing but loves Y too much to tell the gang
  • ABC finds out Z is no longer faithful - and holds her hostage
  • X and Y are now in a dilema
  • X and Y must take down the gang to save Z and clear their names
  • At their disposal -fast cars, guns and their drug haul
  • Queue fast paced and explosive fight scenes and chases
  • ABC are defeated
  • Upon their return they are sent to jail for disobeying orders
  • They decide to break out and join the underground world that they were so good in
  • Because FBI loves Y so much she is easily persuaded to give them an escape route
  • END film on cliff hanger - do they escape?
