Soundtrack. . .

Choosing a soundtrack is one of the most important fundamentals in the production of our teaser trailer. We went through each of our music collections until we narrowed it down to just three artists; X Ray Dog, Evanescence and Paramour. However, although each of the artist provided sufficient music for our genre we decided on a piece called Final Hour by the X ray Dogs. Unlike the other music options, this contained no lyrics. This is a strong, bold instrumental piece full of powerful crescendos and a sinister string instruments. This best suited our trailer as it creates a high tension due to its increasing build up of accents. The timing of the music can also be applied in order to emphasise the change in scene.
Throughout our trailer we have also include a number of sound effects ranging from loud heavy basses to highlight key dramatic events to electrical power cuts sound effects. Effects such as this enable us to polish off our trailer and keep the audience engaged in the action, building on their anxiety.
