Music Research
For my trailer I wanted several songs since many of the trailers I analysed had at least 3 songs and also since my trailer is in the sub-genre of comedy/thriller I will need music that can fit both.
Music that didn't work:
I listened to this song and thought that the technological sounds could fit in with the beginning scenes and appeal to my young audience. However when seeing how this played in editing, the song didn't really work as it was too fast and out of place.
For the more dramatic end scenes when Kat asks Kris why he's doing this to her, I thought maybe a slow dramatic song might work which will infer the idea of dramatic thriller. However the song gave off the wrong connotations, even when sped up, and made the film seem more like a dramatic romance film which is the opposite of what I wanted. Therefore I looked for more upbeat music to fit to give the scene a more dark comedic feel.
Chosen Music:
For the beginning of my trailer I found this mysterious, old fashioned comedic music which fit in with the idea of fantasy. It also fit the slow pace of the beginning and contradicts the serious situation that is spoken about by Kat and Vanessa.
I wanted my trailer to suddenly become serious so I found this song which worked for the reverse scene and lead nicely onto the next scenes where the characters are more worried about what to do. The song is more dark and gives of conventions of thriller. It is also slightly over dramatic which adds comedy.
The music then becomes more upbeat and gives the overall feel to the film and targets young audience members. This leads through the majority of the trailer and is the only song with lyrics which is used for when less talking is said and there's more imagery to look at.
For the end I wanted some music to play with the title colour change. I'm using the last 20 seconds of this song to end off the trailer with some music instead of silence so it's not so serious. The song is also upbeat which advertises the trailer as more of a fun comedy than a thriller.
