Imaginary forces put together this teaser for the second installment of National Treasure.

The 1:40-minute teaser, art-directed by Sean Koriakin of Imaginary Forces, opens on a CG 19th century globe.

The viewer is taken into the globe where script type - from the 18 missing pages of Booth’s diary - is revealed.

Gates (Cage) provides the voiceover, telling the story as though we are seeing the adventure in his head.

Through his deductive thought process, we follow the type where highlighted clues and symbols lead to animated images of President Lincoln and his assassination, and to various landmarks in Paris, London and the US where this global journey takes Gates and his team.
