Planning for Trailers – Fable 2

Fable 2

Week 1

In the start of the project i done my own in-depth research about the game fable 2 and the music they’ve used in the previous games and what the audience expects in the type of historic music generally used to fill the void in the atmosphere

After analyzing both trailers i thought of the similarities and differences used in both trailers, using that research to my advantage i thought of ways that i could use differences from both trailers that i could incorporate into my own trailer making it unique but still having a authentic vibe that makes the audience feel close to home

Week 2

After watching my chosen trailer i thought of an idea i felt was relevant to my objective after brainstorming and documenting my ideas I had to find and record the perfect sounds to fit different parts of the trailer using recording equipment (microphone) while putting together a script for the audio aspect of my trailer. for example in the beginning of my trailer a bird tweets while sitting on a rock, recording this was quite difficult as i had to get close to the bird i was recording to get an accurate sound for so when i edited it through logic pro i could enhance the sound making it more clearer

Week 3

Subsequently watched both trailers gathering inspiration of the script i was going to write, using a professional dynamic vocal microphone i came together with my chosen narrator and recorded the voice over.

Week 4

Started to put the sound effects and sounds recorded into their designated place

Week 5

Finalized the sounds that will be used in the different areas of the trailer also finalized the recording of the voice over.

Week 6

Using logic pro i was advised to add additional effects to the special effects and voice over to bring it to life as i found it dull. for example for the voice over i used a type of sound effect that allows me to alter the sound of the voice making it echo and more intriguing.
