I watched the trailers and they are cool, no complains there. I did feel the model was too "hard-edged", and you could have used more contrast as well :p

the two trailers? they are good, but there were too many "fade-to-blacks" in trailer 1. the target demographic for commercial films has a 5-second attention span, hence they usually use some USC film school cleeshay for the transitions (a flash of light, rapid motion blur) to hold the dims' attention between cuts. "fade-to-blacks" will lose the dims, which is cool if you want to please the critics. trailer 2 had a scene with an out-of-focus wall on the lower left, but it looked more like a lo-res 3D tex than out-of-focus, d-o-f effect, so I would change the texture on the wall there to something else.
There isn't much to crit here except possibly the editing, as mentioned. The style is great, and the animation is solid from what I can see. I love the camera work.
On the negative, definitely too many fades; too soon and too often in most of the shots. As a trailer, I don't think you're letting some of the shots progress far enough to tease the viewer. The editing seems more frustrating than appetizing.
