Teaser Trailer Soundtrack

After collecting feedback from our teachers that our trailer wasn't scary enough and one reason was due to there not being any sound we had to search for music which would combine the shots together and complete the teaser trailer. I had searched on YouTube and Google for some horror songs and I had narrowed it down to 4 songs which I thought would work well. We had tried out all of the songs but the one which we thought had perfect timing and effect was the first song I had found on YouTube. What also made it easier to use was that below in the information tab was a download link to the song and this way we were able to use it within our trailer. We played the song simultaneously with the trailer and the timing from when the shots had slowed down to when they picked up and as the song ends the last bit of writing appears which creates a dramatic and powerful effect as it talks about the characters fighting for their lives.

This is the song which we had used within our trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOptZ60T_1c
