Voiceover Script

To make my trailer appear more authentic I have decided to do a voiceover. Here below is my final script for my voiceover.

• Living in the sticks was never my thing...

• I always wanted to join the rat race... 

• But I didn't expect to feel so lonely... 

• And then I saw it happen...

Choosing Music for My Teaser Trailer

As there will be music in the background of my film, I will have to choose music that I think will be appropriate for the genre and narrative of my film.

Here are a number of possible songs for my teaser Trailer:











Along with finding tracks I might use in the teaser trailer, I have also found a number of possible sound effects that I could use.
