Music

Looking at the different types of music you can get for a film trailer, it is divided into two. A score which is normally just music without words or a soundtrack which is normally where they have a song with lyrics and this is normally sung by a artist that is well known in the music industry. 

I have found two examples of a soundtracks that you will hear and it would instantly make  you think of that particular film which is what we want to try and achieve. 

James Bond - Sky fall 

The Mortal Instruments- Almost is Never Enough

Jaws - Jaws theme tune 


Almost is never enough - The Mortal Instruments 
 

This song is very much a sad intimate song which makes the listener feel emotion and this is one thing we want our soundtrack to be like. The idea of having a soundtrack allows us to write it the way we want it to sound rather than having to fit our trailer to a piece of music that is already constructed. 

 

James Bond - Skyfall - Adele 

This song is very dramatic which fits in with the genre of the film. Its very intense and allows the audience to feel immersed into the music. The shots in the trailer fit with the lyrics which makes the audience to be able to understand the idea of what could happen in the film. 

 

Jaws - Jaw's theme tune 

 

This is the theme tune to the jaws film, but is well known in the film industry. When hearing the music it makes you think of the film and that is what we want our film to have. The music is quite simple but has a lot of power behind it.
