Final tweaks on sound

Final tweaks on sound

After receiving feedback from our audience about our trailer, a lot of them noticed that minor parts of the sound could be changed slightly producing a more fitting sound.

Our audience noticed that the "booms" leading up to the montage were not effective enough, however after some consideration we realised that the build up in sound towards the montage was actually not effective enough at all.

To overcome this issue, we decided to not use the same "boom" track in the build up to the montage that is already being used in the montage. That way, the new timbre of the "boom" in the montage will have a bigger and more effective impact on our audience as it's not a sound that they have already heard in our trailer. It makes it less predictable. We decided to cut the piano track earlier than we had previously, therefore it didn't play during the montage scene.

Additionally, we also also cut the "woosh" audio clip from one of our audio tracks that were previously used in the trailer and applied it to the end of the title to create a bridge passage between the sound of the scenes before and the montage scene. Once we had applied all of these changes to the sound, we copy and pasted the "booms 1" track below the "woosh" creating another layer but we cut to the climax of the "boom 1" audio clip and this added to the tension and created an entrance that was needed for the montage scene. Furthermore, the "boom 1" track was cut as close to the climax of the track as possible, this way the booms got faster as we neared the montage building up suspense and anticipation in the trailer. Using track "booms 1" instead of the "booms" track which were used in the montage scene allowed us to pace ourselves a lot more in the build up rather than building up the tension in the wrong place altogether. Overall, this solved the problem and the booms used in the montage scene, proved to be more effective.
