CHANGES IN OUR VOICE OVER

After we researched different types of trailers and found that a lot of them use voice overs,whether they are taken from a dialogue or a monologue, we decided to incorporate our own voice over. After we did multiple scrips.tested different locations and set ups and tried out using different types of microphones ranging from computers and laptops to camera mics and phones, we decided to use ans choose between both female and male voices to incorporate for our trailer. Although the protagonist in our trailer is a male character we still decided to try ans test a female voice. When we eventually edited and placed both voices with the trailer it seemed that surprisingly the female voice sounded and matched the trailer better than the male voice. As our trailer contains a male protagonist and several female zombie antagonist, the incorporation of the female voice in our trailer helped to introduce a new character ad well as to make the trailer appear a lot more mysterious and suspenseful therefore engaging and attracting the audience attention even further making them more interested and curious. The voice over matched perfectly what was presented in our trailer and helped to make the story and plot a lot more clear. However, when we recorded our voice over we only had our script thus making the tone and mood of it very scripted and presentation and did not sound engaging enough in order to fit with the visual presentation of our trailer. This is why we thought that our voice over might not be as appropriate to fit with our trailer thus having to either make changes to it by perhaps watching the trailer itself whilst recording or slightly correcting the script or work on the soundtrack and focus on it a lot more in order to compensate for the missing voice over.
