Soundtrack
We found a piece of music from the series 'Halo: Forward Unto Dawn' which we think would be very effective to use in our horror and will fit the basis of our storyline around this piece. The music sets a atmosphere of intense emotion and action which we feel will be highly effective in our trailer and be the most powerful aspect. The made the soundtrack mix together with our titles, making the word come up onto the screen when the beat changes. This we feel is affective as it will stick into our audiences mind and will something from our trailer they will associate to when people talk about it.

Soundtrack in trailers our one of, if not the most important things to get right. It is one of the things that stick to the views mind after watching it and becomes the most memorable.
With our trailer we tried out several different soundtracks which would give the trailer different feels and theme to them. Here is a example of one with a more emotional and sad feel. |
In the trailer for 'I am Legend' it uses its soundtrack to show the different themes and ideas of the movies.
At the start the music gives it and action feel with fast paced shots and explosions. It then stops and goes to some quite and soothing music which shows the idea of isolation and we see the emotional side of the main character. These changes in the soundtrack are good for selling the film to the audience. |
