Music for our teaser trailer

Choosing the music for our teaser trailer will be hard because we need to make sure that we are portraying the right image when people hear our trailer because if we used music that didn't fit it wouldn't make the film seem the same and would lose quality.
As our teaser trailer is a thriller and parts are very jumpy and mysterious we want to use music with a 'dark' tone, something that will create suspense and intense excitement.
The first song we have thought about is called 'Madhouse' by Rihanna, as it is an intro to her music album therefore it is only 1 minute, 35 seconds long. It has the perfect tempo and it isn't too over the top and loud but it is intriguing and catchy. It is likely that we will use this song as it fits perfectly with our trailer and I think it will capture attention if someone over hears it.
I also found a soundtrack that was used for another film, but the films are completely different therefore i thought that we could use the soundtrack shown below (from Saw) as it doesn't have any words which could be useful, and it is very slow and has a creepy effect, but the tempo speeds up from time to time which would make our film exciting.






I have also found a website which has several suspense and thriller sound tracks which is perfect for giving us ideas of what sort of music we could try throughout different parts to create excitement, as there are many different sounds that all fit into the thriller genre.

As we need to get music for different parts of the films we need to use music that has different paces; fast for the dramatic, exciting parts and slow for the slower paced parts such as introduction music.
Below i have made a list of music that we could use throughout our film, however these are only ideas and we may come up with different music when editing:


Alexandre Desplat – New Moon
Minerva - Deftones
My Chemical Romance - I Dont Love You
Nany Sinatra - Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)
Evanescence - Bring Me To Life
My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words
