Workshop 6 (Video)
Workshop 6 venom trailer video with audio that i have added
My Composition
My Research
First, I listened to a couple of artists such as Ennio Morricone and Hans Zimmer, then I went onto the first track I added to my Venom soundtrack was the Venom loop with the vocals on the trailer, then I added a two-step remix which energized the track and led it in. Then I added a thunder drum kit to give an eerie effect and lead the next section, this is used in the first and the third sections which is ominous. After that I added a synthesizer called Extraterrestrial Presence which worked with the Thunder drum kit well to give an eerie feel to the first section, it is also used in all four sections, but it has different or fewer instruments layered with it to create a different emotion for the viewers. Then I added the Stream kit to compliment the Thunder drums in the first and third sections and the Extraterrestrial Presence in all four sections. After that, I added a Synth Pop Strings synthesizer to add suspense to the end of the second section and to lead in the fast-paced third section which slows down towards the middle. After that, I added a synthesizer called Downing Boom to create surges which adds even more suspense. The last instrument I added was the Blazing Hot drum kit to make the start of the third section fast paced and then add suspense to the middle of the third section. The track's BPM is at 120 beats per minute and the track is at a 4/4 time signature. I used the trailer's original sounds and layered my own stuff into it to embellish the sound and add to what was already there.
Introduction
Music has been in film trailers ever since sound has been linked with pictures. One of the earliest examples of this would be from a movie called "The Jazz Singer" (This was made in 1927. This was one of the first movies that was said to include synchronized sound. Many scenes from this movie were previewed, so synchronized sound was heard by the viewers and became more noticed when added to trailers and film. This made the films more popular, and audiences felt more drawn in to see the films and trailers.
A lot of artists that produced film tailors felt that their work was not being preserved. Because of this, a lot of artists went unnoticed.
Instrumentation used in films and trailers.
When it comes to looking at what instruments are used in trailer and film music, they can have a wide range of instruments due to what sound you want and what impact you are trying to create for the listener.
