Even during the trailer there are a lot of cliff hangers and really intrigue the audience into wanting to watch the whole series to find out what happens i every scene which is what a lot of Tv drama series do.

2) What genre (or genres) are suggested by this His Dark Materials trailer?

It has a fantasy, mystery and adventure fiction type of sensation

3) What kind of characters and narratives are introduced in this trailer?

A lot of explorer and daring characters who seem as if they would sacrifice themselves in bravery

4) What settings appear in the trailer?

farm houses, ancient towns, large church cathedrals and forests which reinforce the audience with a sense of traditional TV program. 

5) Who do you think the target audience for His Dark Materials is? Give reasons for your answer.

I think that it could be a vast age group from 21 onwards however I don't think that teenagers would enjoy this media as much as middle aged people as the story seems as if it does not suit their media profile group.
