Finding music selections is going to be difficult for a piece like this one. The music needs to match the tone of the piece as well as provide a beat that is infectious and rhythmic enough to merit keeping it in the trailer. There are a few options I'm going for that I've learned of from last year. The first is Chosic.
This service is a lifesaver and it's where I ended up searching for a lot of music last year. By having familiarity with this platform I think I can save myself tons of time while searching for music to place within this production. I've already discussed the newest batman trailer theme, but there are certain other themes that I think match the aesthetic that I'm going for. The Daredevil opening is one that calmly builds in melody, which is interesting to listen to and keeps engagement in an otherwise bland intro. One thing that I've noticed about my favorite themes, both for trailer music and for regular score music, is that the music has to build into a powerful melody, and there needs to be gaps. One perfect example of this is Torsion, a song on Spotify that was used for one of the Avengers trailers(or at least an edit of one of them I can't remember).

I tend to get a little squirrely with music and the fact that I know what kind of sound I'm going for is something that will certainly help me in the search.
