    “ the women in your trailer seem to have the most effective screen time, are you sure who your real hero and real villains are”
    The heroine is the woman who wear sunglasses with short hair and there is no villains actually,the film reaction a kind of social phenomenon,if you like it,I can give you the movie,i downloaded it,haha.

    [zhang sandy] What kind of music will fit my trailer,do you have some advice?hope can give some example.”

    Not an easy answer as music is very subjective. in the real world your employer/producer would give you direct examples. ie “i want it to sound like such and such”

    I’ve seen the real trailer for this film, and your version is not that different(quality of encode/render aside). Did you use new footage, or just trailer footage? If you used trailer footage only you might want to pick up the DVD and rip footage from it. It’s available now even the movie just came out

    And one of the main actresses, Yao Chen, is EXTREMELY popular right now, seems she’s on the cover of everything (in China) these past two years so putting here upfront might make sense.

    Mark’s suggestions were quite helpful. Sometimes it is difficult when people are learning the art of editing because they lack the opinion of others. If this were a paid edit, you bet the producer would have quite a few notes for you every time they viewed it. And the more you edit the better you’ll get.

    I have used many music in my trailer but i found there are not the feeling I need,it’s a headache to me.
    “Did you use new footage, or just trailer footage”,I pick up from the movie not the trailer footage,i have worked as Television drama post-production,may be my style to be inclined to…so perhapes action and adventure film will fit me.
    So happy to meet you, Wu Xin.and which city are you come from?Can you leave your QQ?Looking forward to your reply.

    Instead of making a trailer for a downloaded movie why do not you make the movie?
