ConcreteGarden- Sound Track

ConcreteGarden- Sound Track

This is small soundtrack mix that we created to show what sounds we would like to have in our trailer. They are mostly eerie experimental soundtracks, one of key inpirations is Jon Hopkins who produced the 'Monsters' soundtrack. These tracks have ambient vocal that suggest some sort of confusing and mysterious environment. We aim to find or create more sounds like this that we could use in our trailer, we would not use a singular soundtrack as that isn't that common and doesn't show off our ability, we could use three different soundtracks for the three acts, all increasing in BPM.





Hopkins has been responsible for the production of many successful albums, 'Monsters' is a low budget british film that has incorporated a more diverse musical soundtrack we believe this creates more emotion whilst watching our film trailer.

In the 'Concrete Garden' trailer we are going to use sound effects many of these will be created my our selves and recorded on a micro-track, this is because many of the effects will tie in with the action on screen. We may edit our natural sound that we record on audacity or straight on final cut pro, this will help us to achieve the correct sound that we are looking for.

The masks- Photography and Lighting Practice

In order to have a idea of what the mask looks like photographed we carried out a series of test shots with different styles of lighting a poses. We used photoshop to manipulated the images.

The one is really strong and ominous, the knife looks really strong in the image, this image could possibly give too much of the film away on a poster .

This photo is really good the shadow is very sharp and strong on the white mask. The lighting is direct and this allows all the contours of the mask to be shown. The black clothing creates almost a foreground for the mask to rest on.

This was a very quick edit on Photoshop- We created a very rough poster in the style of halloween to see if it would work for our poster and I really think it does. The hand is skewed and bent which presents more ultra-violence.

The only full body shot used, this is good although shot in a garden- but it does take away the sort of alien presence that is delivered in a close up. The could work better for the magazine rather than the poster.

Movie Inspiration

Many films are based on true stories whilst researching cult activity we came across this story- This will help to strengthen the truth of our text and making it more believable to an audience.

Research and True inspiration

Two Women Charged in Satanic Sex Ritual Stabbing

A real life news report- something we may like to copy and use in our trailer to grab the audience to make it feel real. Realism is a common and effective postmodern technique.

Cult Logo's

We needed to create a logo and indentity for our religous based cult. I looked through many previous tribal logos and pagan logos to get an understanding. I drew these two logo's on Adobe Illustrator and we will need to recreate these on a page and on Marks hand for our trailer.
