Layout

The score to the film trailer is set out in four segments

Intro (main character/plot)

Subject Introduction (other character introduction + plot)

Subject explanation (Plot explained + problems that occur)

Ending (outro and a cliffhanger)

Introduction

The film introduction contains many elements of film sound within.

It creates pathos, leaving the viewer with a feeling of curiousity (which keeps you watching)

Uses relative foley for pieces like the car and footsteps

Introduction (2)

It uses on set sound

It also uses source sound.

Pathos

Pathos is the sense of emotion portrayed through the use use film in

In pain and gain there’s a lot of pathos being used

The subject introduction increase’s in tempo letting you know there’s a change on topic and what the movie is about. The added fast paced music kindle to the fast paced film segment.

How it’s layered

Just like a report, a movie has segments The segment usually go like this;

Intro

Subject introduction

added information (explanation) on the subject

Ending

What I noticed

for each of these topics the movie sound changes. The intro is soft and quiet, with a preview of the main characters bio. I’d like to think that the music fits the characters personality and that what the creators were aiming for. There’s an added sense of pathos to keep you hooked on the trailer and I believe that’s why it was added.

In pain and gain

The segments tend to have different tracks for each sub segment

Always Increase in tempo

Always change the atmosphere

Use a various amount of hit points

Overall

Overall the trailer include many of the main topics needed for sound within film.

Like the pathos in the first scene and throughout.

Foley work for the action points where hitpoints are used.

outro

As a sound for film student I understand all the elements required to build a successful film clip.

The sound plays one of the biggest roles within a film because without it you wouldn’t have emotion or amplified action.

Film without without sound is simply a car without wheels. Great to look at but unable to move due to a lack of parts.
