Planning : Sound Effects

We plan to have a few sound effects in our teaser trailer as they can often be used as a sign when things are going wrong and with our main Protaganist character often having bad luck and things going wrong for him, sound effects can help show this in the narrative. Also with the trailer being in the genre of rom-coms while relating to teenagers, we found from our research that often sound effects play a part because it is a sign of immaturity, teenagers messing around having fun are where silly noises come in and have a comic affect on the audience, which we want to happen. One sound effect we want to have is when our character will be hit by a ball or other object as we introduce him to give some comic affect. Also at the end of the trailer just before it finishes, we want to have the title of the film, then a sound effect of a dj set scratching and then it cuts back to our main character doing something silly, this sound effect will show our audience that just as they think our trailer is over, there is one last bit for them to see.
