The document discusses ensuring that any sounds used in a teaser trailer avoid copyright issues. It recommends researching which sounds are allowed and researching alternatives that are freely available and legal to use, such as creating original sounds. It provides several websites where royalty-free sounds can be found and notes the document writers' plan to incorporate a tonal shift in the music from initially sad to later happy to mirror a change in atmosphere in the teaser trailer.

2. COPYRIGHT
To ensure we adhere to the guidelines of using different sounds in our teaser trailer we
have to make sure we research into some of the sounds which are allowed, and others
which have a copyright issue on them.
We are aware of not breaching the copyright law, and using sounds which may risk our
teaser trailer in any way.
To be aware of this issue we have decided to use sounds which are readily available for
our use, and are free to download, and are lawfully legal. If we decide to not use the
sound that is already available we can create our own sound, which can be a bit time
consuming, however it will perfectly fit our teaser trailer.

4. OUR SOUND IDEAS:
For our teaser trailer we wanted to incorporate the division in the tone of the music in the
narrative of our teaser trailer, as at the beginning the music is a little more sad and emotional,
whereas the second half of the teaser is more light-hearted and happier, and this is significant
as it shows a change in the atmosphere in regards to how before the 4 characters were
suffering from different matters, and they then are able to win with their situations.
To get a basic idea of what we wanted we used www.youtube.com to get a different variety of
sounds we wanted to incorporate in our teaser trailer. As we aren’t able to directly take the
songs we had wanted because of the copyright issues, we founds such as
www.freesoundarchive.org and www.freesound.org.
The main elements we had wanted to be specifically in our teaser were as follows:
 Instrumental only
 Violins
 Piano
 No bass
 Simple and calm
