Sound for our Trailer

Me and Hebe decided that we would not use diagetic sound in our trailer, this is for a number of reasons. Firstly, the films supposed message is one relating heavily to the growing influence of social media (which doesn't include diagetic speech), so we thought we would reflect this in our trailer, by not including any diagetic sound and basing it on their online conversation. Also, good actors at this level/age are hard to come by, so in order to increase quality I thought it necessary to reduce the roles of the actors; removing speech from the equation. Furthermore, I believe that a trailer for a thriller should have much suspense, which, I believe, can be best exhibited through tense music and silence - not speech.

Here are some soundtracks and samples I am thinking of using for the trailer. With regards to permission, the ones I have looked at give permission underneath the video, e.g one says 'licence this for your project'. If I were to use one of these I will have to time it so that it reflects the events of the trailer; a task which I look forward to. I believe that these soundtracks will help emphasise the creepy and tense nature of the trailer.
