During the editing process, my group have been looking at the music and sound effects we could use to enhance the 'scary' element of our horror trailer. We had been researching on YouTube; searching 'Royalty Free Horror Music' and sound effects that could help us to build our trailer however, we had noticed that all of the music and sound effects had either been used before or didn't sound menacing enough to scare our target audience. However, we found one sound effect that will be faintly heard under the featured sound.
We decided to research into previous A2 horror trailers that had been put onto YouTube by other students across the UK. We had noticed that all/most of them contained:
- a chase scene
- a dragging scene
- darkness
- almost no dialogue at all
- fast cuts
All of the above, we have tried to encorporate into our trailer.
After discovering that finding royalty free music was too difficult, we came across one trailer however that has influenced us greatly when it comes to our editing process. The trailer for 'I See You': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMWxhksKoxQ had encorporated the sound effects used in Texas Chainsaw Massacre which is what we had intended on using beforehand. The way they had used this sound effect/music enhanced the 'scary' moments in their trailer which is what we're hoping to do. We decided to export their music by using the site http://www.youtube-mp3.org and had put it onto Adobe Premiere Pro to start the editing process.
