Finishing of Production of Trailer

This is the final stage of the production of my trailer. All of the finishing touches have been applied. Sound has been added, including music, sound affects and background noise. All of the sounds incorporated are used in order for the trailer to seem dramatised. Some of the edits (such as one of the cut edits) have a sound in synchronisation with it, in order to establish one scene from the next in dramatic fashion. All of the sounds and music are intense, and are something you would hear in a horror / thriller trailer. It includes heavy deep sound which makes the viewer feel uneasy, that anything can happen (in our questionnaire, one of things we found out was that audiences responded well to "things that make you jump", so I picked up on this and made the trailer give off this idea.)

Footage

The footage that is used in this trailer is all footage that was planned to be filmed. It's stereotypical shots of the hand-held film genre. An example being the very last shot before the the Secret Alphabets logo appears. It is a POV shot of one of the characters running, then falling over to create a fast paced scene. The REC trailer shown in the research section uses this at the end of the trailer.

Edit

Only two edits have been used throughout the whole trailer: cut and fade edits. Simplistic, because of the way it is filmed, by hand, its there to keep to correlations associated with the film. Things like the sense of realism is heightened because of the lack of Hollywood style editing.

Sound

Most of the sound that is used is atmospheric and helps towards the general tone that the trailer sets for our audience. You can see below in the final version how sound helps create tension and suspense below.
