When we were putting the music into the trailer we discovered it sounded awful and instead of making it scary it made it funny because the music did not fit as well as we first hoped. Where we had edited the music to fit how we wanted to we did not realise how different the two clips would sound next to each other and we ended up having different instruments playing next to each other, causing it to sound dreadful.So what we deiced to do was look again at artists which do the eerie/scary/creepy type of music we were looking for.
We first looked at a composer called 'Hans Zimmer' who composed the soundtrack to Inception to see how his music created the tension to build and that we could perhaps go with something he has done, But as you can hear below this does not fit well with our trailer at all as it is too calm, and although it builds the tension very well it does not have enough harsh sounds that we need in our trailer.
However by looking at him we realised that we did not need such harsh tones all the way through the trailer but at times we could apply a quieter sound, which actually built the tension up more because when the harsh sounds did appear they stood out even more than they did before.
We looked at 'Penderecki' again but looked at more of his music and discovered one called 'Threnody for the Victims of Hiroshima' This we believed was even better than the one we heard before as it was so long and had loud and quiet sections that editing these bits together would be a lot easier and would more importantly work and sound well together.
