Many social realist trailers always tend to include non-diegetic,
diegetic and ambient sound. The non-diegetic is usually the sound track. The
sound track is key in social realism trailers as it hooks the audience as it
always tends to be in contrast to the trailer and seems to reflect the mood of
the story and the characters feelings making the audience feel empathetic and
sympathetic for the character, the reason for this is because many audiences
can relate to the subject of the trailer as social realist films always focus
on relevant issues in today’s society.
In our social realist trailer we don’t want to use a lot of
diegetic sound this is because we feel that it will be more effective to use
non-diegetic creating more of an emotional atmosphere, also because we think
using the sound track will work better on its own however we will use ambient
sound for example tapping on a keyboard and a ringtone of a phone, which will
be heightened to make it stand out more.
If we didn’t include any background it wouldn’t make sense
as social realist films always include atmospheric sound, as it wouldn’t make
sense having the trailer in complete silence.
Some websites/programmes we will and have been looking at are
listed below:
Garage Band for Mac
When looking through these different music programs we came across over a variety of different non-copyrighted sound that we were able to use in our short trailers, out of the three we have looked at felt music library was one of the best ones as the sound quality was a lot better then the others and was more straightforward to use. The track we have decided to use in our short trailer is called "A Brave New Girl".
