Progression.

For the last few weeks now we have been editing our trailer, i think we have made good progess, we have managed to decide what clips to use and we have cut them where it is needed. After editing some clips we thought that they didn't flow together very well and that something was missing. We decided to start making the music using GarageBand because we thought that would help us envisage how our final trailer will look. GarageBand is quite simple to use, it has all the sound effects from drum beats to people clapping. We had some trouble finding a base of the soundtrack as not everyone agreed with the chosen choices. However after many different types of music we finally decided one that sounded quite sinister and staying in the theme of the trailer. We decided to stick more with the strings and beats and less piano because we thought that sounds more thriller music. The print screen one shows our original music soundtrack, and how much we changed it to print screen two. We decided not to use the original soundtrack because we thought it was too busy and there was too many sounds. We also realised it didn't really fit with our trailer for example when the shots start speeding up and becoming more tense the music wouldn't mirror that.  After editing our trailer a bit more we decided to start fresh and try doing the music again but this time try not using many different sounds and adding tense music when needed. This way the music isn't the main focus of the trailer and doesn't overpower any dialogue we have in it.
