Analysing sound effects

We used a range of sound effect throughout our trailer . Sound effects are the most important aspect within a trailer as it causes the audience to feel something and also makes the trailer come across a lot more scary.

The sounds used within our trailer and the explanation:

SCREAMS
Throughout our trailer we used a variety of screams
1. The scream at the start of the trailer is a long drawn out scream which symbolises an attack thats happening to the mum and also reveals her distress
2.the abrupt scream when Sydney is listening to her music and gets grabbed from behind. This portrays that is was sudden
3.There is use of distant screams when Miss chapel and Miss willow are in the woods this represents their victims
4. The jumps care at the end uses a high pitched scream we felt that this would be more effective to scare the audience as the music dies down and the jump scare takes place.

DOOM & PHONE
The tragic doom sound portrays that all is yet to be revealed as after the attack

BIRDS CHIRPING
was used to show the normality against the scenery this gives the false perception that everything will be fine.

DOOR HANDLE
The door opening makes the audience attentive to find out what's going to happen behind the doors.

TRAGIC ABRUPT SOUND
1.This warns the audience that things are about to change shows the equilibrium has been disrupted.
2.When Sydney jumps is shows her dramatic escape but also connotes possibly the equilibrium has been restored.

HEELS AND HAND SMACKING
portrays Miss Chapel's sophistication against her harshness which makes the audience feel a bit tense about the character.

CHILDREN WHISPERING
These voices are speaking inside of Sydney's head is shows her mental state to the audience and makes them feel weary of her actions

SLIGHT RINGING NOISE
the slight ringing noise makes the audience aware that there may be something in the room with her as their is no silence it helps to build up tension

CANON
the similar sound to a canon is used when there is a demonised character standing behind Sydney this contrasts with how unaware she is that there is a being behind her.

NECK CRACKING
connotes Miss chapel's age and how she comes across as not human due to the cracking noises which can connate maybe she's not the age we think she is.
