The document discusses music and sound effects chosen for a film trailer. It describes selecting upbeat, fast-paced music to represent the trailer's tone, and a slow song called "Drowning" to metaphorically represent female characters. Sound effects like "broken air tank" and "heavy stomp" were chosen to fit with scenes showing cocaine, a nightclub setting, and character introductions. Care was taken to ensure music and visuals like strobes were synchronized during editing.
