I'm going to look briefly at the difference between a teaser trailer and a full length trailer. The trailers are both from 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon'. This has werewolves in it, so it sort of connects with what I'm looking at. They also link because the series of films are based around the hit teen books, so they are literature adaptations, which i will look into further in the coming weeks.

To begin with, Trailer 1:


Trailer 2:


Apart from the obvious difference between the two, length. The rest of the trailer consists of mostly the same scenes but the extended trailer takes the action a little further.
The reason for a film to produce an extended trailer as well as a teaser trailer is to just start to grab it's audiences attention. Once they're fully hooked on just the teaser usually an extended version is released and with that a release date for the film.
Also for films with such a big fan following such as 'The Twilight Saga', and 'Harry Potter' (just to name a couple) a few different trailers are released, all containing similar scenes but with a few exceptions.
