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

[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

Something about Celeste | Tapas

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

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

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.

DECALE | Tapas

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

[AnniFlamma]

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.

At the moment, I m leaning towards "Twisted Labyrinth" on the Carnival Arcane soundtrack by Midnight Syndicate. If fact, I might actually put together that book trailer later in the project. Listening to small bands and indy music writers makes the licensing this sort of thing much easier.

[TadxSarah]

I was actually thinking of doing a trailer/ music video for My D.N.A. Girlfriend before the summer.

I found a song that fits it perfectly.

Here's my comic:

My D.N.A. Girlfriend

[TACOBERTO]

You actually have your own animated opening?? NICE!!

[mappypaint]

Yes! I made that along with a fake 5 minute episode for april fools 2 years ago.XD The intro is not a trailer, but that opening sums up what the comic is about... and that top gear opening theme music fits well I think.

[Cronaj]

Man... I wish I was good at animating. In any case, for my fantasy comic Callous, eventually, I plan to use one of the songs I composed for the series. Probably Dyastic Cycle.

If I wanted to make a trailer for this:

Project SHaDe | Tapas

I'd want it to look and sound a lot like this.

Like damn, it's got both the cool and awesome factor, blasted all at once in just 30 seconds.
Also, Tokyo Ghoul is a huge influence on my work, so that is a factor.

[SynCypher]

So, I'm not the best animator in the biz but, I did make a trailer with the music I wanted for The Awlers. Long story short, I took the original rhyme and changed the tune slightly to match the tone of the story and then inserted brief animations (on account of, I'm still an animation newb). This is the trailer that came of it:

It's not perfect but, I really did enjoy making it (and one of my friends at MickNinjas did the singing).

[feba5]

Yeah I'm thinking about making a trailer recap at the end of the first act, and I am planning with a sounddesigner friend to use some kind of tuvan vocals, or some dark remix of mantras

[arushiangelica]

I write a poetry comic Existentialist Crisis,

Existentialist Crisis | Tapas

If there ever is a trailer for it, I would want Michael Bublé's Feeling Good just for the heck of it. So that every time I see the trailer I can laugh my ass off at the irony.
