Sounds - DEVOUR
Once we'd decided to change our idea we had to come up with a new soundtrack that would fit the pace of the new trailer. We wanted something that reflected the genre, horror, yet still had a fast, action-paced soundtrack. We looked at various horror and action soundtracks that we could use but had no luck so we turned to the gaming industry and looked at survival horror video game soundtracks. We looked at popular game series and decided on using the soundtracks used in Resident Evil Revelations.

We used both of these soundtracks to involve a horror feeling but also in a fast paced theme. We used 'Ghost Ship' to create a creepy atmosphere at the start of the trailer and ran through the whole trailer however you can not hear it due to 'Hunting' starting. We decided to begin 'Hunting' when the running began because we though that the soundtrack linked to the shots. The use of these soundtracks worked well because it fitted with the storyline and genre of our trailer and it created a tense atmosphere.

Sounds - First Idea
We looked at different, creepy versions of childhood nursery rhymes such as 'twinkle twinkle little star' because tunes like this fit in with our childish theme, and having or creating a creepy version would create a sinister edge to the soundtrack. We didn't choose this particular song because it wasn't specifically relevant to our storyline in Hamelin.
For another idea, we looked at using Come Little Children but with a male voice. This was going to be our final soundtrack however during the editing process we decided that it didn't work as well as we wanted it to. Although it was fitting to our storyline of children being possessed and lead away by the Pied Piper, we decided to go with something more instrumental than a fitting soundtrack.
