Animatic

Because I had trouble uploading the animatic onto the blog I had to upload it onto a separate website and provide a link.
With the animatic however, I will be able to see how long my trailer will be and how well it edits together to judge the pace and style of it in whole.

Audio in My Film Trailer

Most trailers have music played with the clips of the movie that help empathise the genre, tone and mood of the film.

In the "500 Days of Summer" trailer there are five songs in all played on the trailer;
  • There Is a Light That Never Goes Out by The Smiths

Original Release - 1992

Written By - Johnny Marr and Morrissey

Record Label - WEA


  • Us by Regina Spektor

Original Release - 2006

Written By - Regina Spektor

Record Label - Transgessive/WEA


  • Black Tambourine by Beck

Original Release - 2005

Written by - Beck

Record Label - Interscope

  • You Make My Dreams by Hall & Oates

Original Release - 1980

Written By - Sara Allen, Daryl Hall, John Oates

Record Label - RCA


  • Vagabond by Wolfmother
Original Release - 2005

These set the tone of the movie and the tempo fits in with the changes in the story. They are also used to show the change in the narrative structure of the trailer. I will be using the convention of non-diegetic in my trailer to represent the changes within the narrative structure.

Within my trailer I will be using the following songs;

  • "Can't take my eyes off you" by Andy Williams
