A teaser trailer is a sneak preview to the film being released, it normally is only 30-60 seconds long and normally uses footage which is not used in the film. It is supposed to create hype so people want to see the theatrical trailer and then the movie. It normally doesnt give away the plot but it does show the main characters of a film. Sometimes a teaser trailer will be very simple and not show any characters at all just a clip with music and sound effects to create a sense of mystery.
