my three conventions
sound release and editing
Sound - I think that our trailer follows the sound convention of a real horror trailer and I think this because the sound track was made in the same way a real horror production would make it which is through Logic Pro x and GarageBand, both of which are professional software and are used often to create good sound tracks.
Secondly I feel that our soundtrack follows a real media product due to the fact that it has a similar structure in that it starts off slow then gradually gets faster every 20 seconds roughly atlas up until the last 20 seconds of the trailer were the pace is very fast to give intensity and for the montage.
Thirdly I think that our soundtrack uses the forms of the convention because the whole point of a soundtrack being used in a horror trailer is to create tension and make the viewer feel on edge and to give the audience a sense of what's going to happen. After looking at our trailer I believe that the sound track definitely builds tension as if goes on and makes the viewer wonder what will happen to the characters that they have seen.
Lastly I feel that the sounds in our trailer use the forms of conventions through other sound effects such as the screams and the door slamming, not only does this intensify the scenes but it makes the audience want to watch more to see what happens to the protagonist and antagonist.
On the other hand the trailer does go against the normal formed convention as in a majority of horror trailers there is a use of diegetic sounds meaning that there are sounds made by and heard by the characters in the trailer were as with our trailer we strictly used sound effects and the soundtrack. This would subvert the form of sound however it isn't a significant enough change to confuse the audience.
Release - I would say that our release date has followed the form of the convention because it has been placed in the usual place of a real trailer which is at the end of the trailer during the last 10 seconds. Moreover the font for the release date usually follows the same font used through out all titles placed in the trailer and we have followed this too.
In-addition to this we have also followed the convention by making the colour of the font red which gives it a horror vibe and connotes blood and death. By following this criteria and keeping everything similar for the duration of the trailer it makes it recognisable, realistic and prevents confusion towards the audience as the font, colour and positioning is consistent.
