Below are a few songs that I am interested in putting in my movie trailer as I think it will suit my genre and the scenes I plan to film as it will make them emotional and tie in with the plot of the trailer. I may not fit all these songs in my trailer but I will know what songs are better suited to it once I have finished filming.
when looking for the right kind of songs to put in my trailer I came across songs that I heard in films I have watched and knew they would suit my trailer and my audience would recognise them.
The first song I have chosen is Hans Zimmer - Time. I like this song as it is from the film Inception which is also a psychological thriller and I think it will suit the scenes that my trailer will feature.
The second song that I have chosen is Hand Zimmer - Solomon. I like this songs as it is from the film 12 years a slave and is a good song for a trailer especially mine I think as it will sound good in some of the scenes in my trailer.
The third song I have chosen is Thomas Newman - American beauty theme song which is mainly known from the movie Finding Nemo.

Teaser Trailer ideas and Inspirations
Below are a number of trailers that I have taken ideas and inspiration from when deciding on what kind of scenes and camera shots to feature in my trailer as well as looking at the genres that is the same as mine; Psychological thriller.
The first one I looked at was Gone Girl which tells the story of Nick and Amy Dunne's difficult marriage, which is foundering. The first half of the book is told in first person, alternately, by both Nick and Amy; Nick's perspective is from the present, and Amy's from the past by way of journal entries. The two stories are very different. Amy's account of their marriage makes her seem happier and easier to live with than Nick depicts. Nick's story, on the other hand, describes her as extremely anti-social and stubborn. Amy's depiction makes Nick seem more aggressive than he says he is in his story. I really enjoyed both the book and film and the genre of this film.
The Second trailer I looked at was Changeling which stars Angelina Jolie as a woman supposedly reunited with a boy she immediately realizes is not her missing son. When, however, she tries to demonstrate this to the police and city authorities, she is vilified as delusional and an unfit mother. the film is based In Los Angeles in 1928, single mother Christine Collins (Jolie) returns home to discover her nine-year-old son, Walter (Gattlin Griffith), is missing. Reverend Gustav Briegleb (Malkovich) publicizes Christine's plight and rails against the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) for its incompetence, corruption and the extrajudicial punishment meted out by its "Gun Squad" led by Chief James E. Davis (Feore). Several months after Walter's disappearance, the LAPD tells Christine that he has been found alive. Believing the positive publicity will negate recent criticism of the department, the LAPD organizes a public reunion. Although "Walter" (Devon Conti) claims he is Christine's son, she says he is not. Captain J. J. Jones (Donovan), the head of the LAPD's Juvenile Division, insists the boy is Walter and pressures Christine into taking him home "on a trial basis".
