RESEARCH INTO MUSIC

When deciding what kind of music to include in our trailer we looked at a multitude of trailers with similar concepts. We found that the majority begun with happy and upbeat soundtracks that then progressed into slower tracks, got cut off completely or got distorted. An example of this would be the "The Visit" trailer which was a film that came out last year in September. 


This is also achieved in the trailer for "Unfriended" which was released in January. The music progresses from light and happy to suddenly being cut off by non-diegetic sounds which is a feature that has been used in out trailer.


When deciding on the types of sound effects we wanted to use, we looked into existing media texts to find out what worked best naturally without appearing out of place. Below are two clips of sound effects that we have used in our trailer.
