Our trailer will have fast-paced music that starts off
slow, creepy and suspenseful as the trailer tells the initial information/story. It will
then speed up dramatically and reach crescendo while the trailer shows short,
fast clips of action from the movie. We will probably only need one music clip that starts off slow and speeds up, and we will edit it so that the pace fits the images being shown.
The only diegetic sound in the trailer will be Holly talking to her friend about her problems - which will be used as the voiceover for our trailer - while the rest of the sound will be muted so that the music will have more of an effect. This is very common in trailers from the horror/thriller genre as it builds suspense and makes the audience want to watch the trailer again by keeping the information given to them very limited. I personally think that the music is the most important aspect of a trailer, so it is vital that we choose a good track.
We are also going to use silence for emphasis at some points. For example, at the beginning of the trailer when Holly says that bad things are happening to her, there will be no music in the background so that her words are more effective.
