Movie Trailer piece of music

Link to our soundtrack---http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj4SPn5fnMA&list=UU1kgyM7RKDwcNPhkOOIXWgQ

So in this piece of music we had used a variety of instruments and a lot of mixed tempo also a variety in volume (dynamics) and quite a few of instruments such as the electric guitar, the drums an African drum and the piano (not to be confused with keyboard).

As we start the piece we have a strict build up making sure we use the canon effect bringing one instrument in at a different point of time contrasting to starting our piece with all the instruments coming in with one go.

We have also used a variety of tempo building up a steady rhythm until we hit the point of the trailer where the screen/monitor goes black and there is a sudden boom/bomb.

A variety of drone notes have been played by Omar on the drum whereas me and Raza have managed to play quite a few of ostinato's as our parts required them. Jerome has played a steady pedal note throughout the performance while he played lead and also managed the tempo of the piece.

On a slightly more critical note we have not managed our volume very well in terms of not being able to hear some people in our performance and also not being able include/use sound effects and vocals so far on this piece we are therefore planning to use more sound effects and vocals further on in our piece.
