Research into and use of music

My group and I researched into different sounds from existing trailers to see what types of sounds were used where . For example sounds where they're was use of building up tension and sounds used to compliment jump scares . Here is the list of all the sounds we found within the trailer we had watched. We also played the sounds we had found to see how if it would work alongside our trailer. This task meant a lot of trial and error. 



The sounds found here portray todorov equilibrium theory. Within horror trailers there is a calm eery soundtrack but as tension builds and events start to happen the sounds changed. This relates to equilibrium as the calm soundtrack is portrayed during the calm like state of equilibrium when everything is normal. The diverse use of compelling sounds and tragic sounds comes to play when their is a disruption of equilibrium and however the fight to restore the equilibrium is shown as their is more abrupt and striking noises such as screaming before the reinstatement of the calm resolved state. 

Below I have added the soundtrack used with our trailer and how the equilibrium differs throughout.
