Voiceovers
For our trailer, we decided to use a voiceover
to make the narrative clearer and explain the montage. We did not use Thea and
George who were our actors, because their voices in the filming and on the
microtrack sounded tinny and unprofessional.
We decided
to use our friends Charles and Alice to play Isaac and Grace's voices, because
their voices sound well pronounced and English. We recorded their voices on the
Mac computer using Garage Band. We wrote a script for them and instructed them
on how to say each line. We then recorded them three times until they got it
right.
After
recording the voiceover, we overlaid it on top of the song for our trailer
which was sung by Charles. This worked well, because it reflected the technique
used in other romance trailers such as 'Blue Valentine' where one of the main
characters is singing the soundtrack over it.
