If you could make a trailer for your comic what music would play over it?

[TACOBERTO]

So let's say you had the opportunity to get an animated trailer for your comic and you could have one song of your choice to coincide with the trailer (any song) what would it be?

For Light and Dark I'd want Carpenter Brut's "Hang em All" (Featured in one of the trailers for the last season of Samurai Jack). I've been a big CB fan for a while and feel this style of music would fit well with Light and Dark's visual style and aesthetic.

also share your comic alongside your song choices so I can read it while listening to your music

For my comic U-Speed it will still be the old Top Gear theme they used back in 1999-2000. It gives me the feel of speed so thats what I used in my comics opening theme.

For The Simple Things, probably You Can't Always Get What You Want
or I'm No Superman. Simple, big dreams, going to get there one day - just like the comic.

For Underworld Engine, I've known for a long time that it would be Dangerous by Son Lux.

Second choice.

[spadesart]

its a tie between these two

Lol; i've mentally created my trailer, scene by scene, synced to this music:

A massive cornerstone of my comic is showcasing the fictional world the story is situated in: A fantasy world, with different "nations", different cities, with different people and species, all participating in different cultures and experiencing all of the positives and negatives that comes with the nature of their coexistence.

If you want a rough outline of the trailer, it's just a series of shots showing various locations across the world: cities and towns, caves and dungeons, ancient ruins, and natural scenery. In the first bridge (the part with the solo violin), the 4 main protagonists are given their own title card, intro animation, you know.

EDIT: Oh, the comic itself.

Just the idea of an animated trailer is so awesome!
For my comic, i think i'd use something not unlike the modern Sonic games main themes, all of them fit the idea, a very energetic, entertaining and cheesy song (also furries). I think the most fitting is the Sonic Colors main theme:

For other songs i'd like more pop or light rock songs, nothing too edgy, a lot like the main charcter's attitude and outlook on life.

Here's the comic:

Trip across the Multiverse | Tapas

[GalacticPotato]

The first one, good girls is definitively going to my playlist!
I didn't watch the new Ghostubusters movie so i had never heard of it, i'm glad i did now!

I recently shared this in another thread, but here's the trailer I created for my Collection Novel.

Rap stuffs.

[CurlyComics]

mine would totaly have My Chemical Romance - I'm not okay
X'D (eventhough when I started writing the comic I had three days grace - Animal I have become in mind. still edgy I know )

[ericsalinas149]

My comic is two sides of the same coin, a sort of happy yang melded with melancholic yin. For the upbeat, whimsical, nonsensical 'Something about Celeste' I would use Grimes 'Kill v Maim' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2EJMd7ZN7w For the deep, philosophical, self-reflective 'Something about Paige' I would use the music from Aurora 'Running with the Wolves' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06ht9MyJLT4

[punkarsenic]

in a truly ideal world, id pay jack de quidt to compose a score for it. that man is SO GOOD

but if i had to pick a song...

EDIT: scratch that, itd be thisssss

its already used for the get down, but its so gorgeous

[msanford19]

For my Harmonyville Heroes comic, it would defintiely be this song: Sugar extended mix

1. I was listening to this song when i came up with the first idea to create this comic (I often find my thoughts and memories becoming tied to music as I listen to it)
2. The beat in this song is awesome and I feel the instrumentals fit in well with my comic's sort of style: simple and cool

[aqua03]

If I were to make an animated trailer based off of Edible Green Tea, the song that keeps popping into my head is 19-2000 by the Gorillaz. I don't know, something about its chill, yet oddball beat works really well with the very offbeat and absurdist tone of my comic.

theres just so few dubstep tin whistle remixes. ya know?
lmao

[rmdooley]

For Legio Arcana I would choose Stand Up by Stephen Bennett

@Hexigate - Thomas Bergersen is fantastic, good choice!

[TheFalseVyper]

I've always imagined using Savior by Rise Against.

Something about it seems to hit home with my comic - whether or not it 100% fits may be up for debate.

Those Called Wolf | Tapas

The music is about regret and miss the childhood.
My comic has a recurring theme of regret and life after traumatic event.

The lyrics goes like this:
”Take me back
Back to when I got my very first record
Was cycling around, humming on "Billie Jean"
In a world in which we disappeared in a Nintendo NES
** **
Take me back
To a back seat traveling to the old Paris
It was a war against Rosa mile after mile
And I felt so small but so free
** **
It was a never ending summer
Because we were living every minute
** **
Take me back
To when everything was so big
Take me back
To before everything was already done
You had to wait
You had to yearn
When the time was so long
Take me back
To those moments I want to feel again”

Almost all of my characters had something happend in their lives that change everything, drastically. And all of them have a feeling of wanting to return to their old life. They are literal vampires so they have gone through a lot stuff.

They used it in Valiant, though. But it's so relevant.

this one is good, too :>

[KSlinger]

Changed my mind-- it's definitely this. It suits the feel of Jed's powers and Serge's anger.
