In the strong professional and career-centric atmosphere here at Cornell University, one piece of wisdom has become common knowledge: first impressions matter.

First impressions are important for impressing those internship recruiters, and also for winning over audiences. Hundreds of films come out every year; every single one has to sell itself to us. Their first impressions matter so very much, and they usually come in the form of teaser trailers.
