The literary element shown in my trailer for //The Graveyard Book// by Neil Gaiman is setting. The graveyard is the setting in the story. The pictures in my trailer were chosen because of the mood they made me think of when looking at them. The pictures give me an uncomfortable feeling. The only exception is the boy’s mood in the picture. I wanted his expression to be a happy one. The reason that I feel this way is because I feel that the boy in the book lives a life with plenty of smiles. The main character in the book grows up in a graveyard. He doesn’t leave the graveyard until around the age of eight. He spends most of his time in the graveyard. Sila's his mentor raises the child in the graveyard and teaches him the things he needs to know about the graveyard. This shows that setting ties into the theme of growing up. When the child will enter the real world he will have some difficulties that normal people don’t have because he grew up in a graveyard.
