These are a few examples of songs/pieces of music I tried using for the first part of my trailer. The genre was indie-pop has this suits the genre of a teen drama very well. I needed to have a semi-uplighting piece that is dramatic yet also a fun and happy song to listen to, so I can set the right tone for my trailer. The characters are two best friends having fun together so I needed a piece of music that would complement this.
The problems I had were that some of the songs were too fast, too slow, not uplighting enough, too uplighting and also didn't have instrumentals available.
I chose to use 'Made of Light' by Mikky Ekko, the same artist whose song was used in the 2nd part of the PaperTowns Trailer. I found that the start of the song was long enough to create that instrumental part in the beginning scene.
