1st Feedback -Teaser Trailer - Facebook

My teaser trailer is aimed at men between the ages of 15 and 30. For the older spectrum of my age range, I asked my mum to put a link of my teaser trailer, as her friends are over 18/20. 
Below is the screenshot of the comments I received. 
I'm happy with the feedback as it's all positive, although it is quite minimal. The post had only been up a week when I had screenshotted the feedback, so over time I may receive more comments. I'm happy that the people who commented do not know me, as this will not create the Hawthorne effect, which is when someone changes their behaviour or comments to be nice to their friends. This means the comments I received will be more valid than those of people that are my friends.
I'm really happy with the comments of my work being "atmospheric", as I think that's a key element for a teaser trailer as conventionally they need to focus on the cinematography of the shots, so it doesn't give too much of the story, but that the film itself looks professional and attractive.

Teaser Trailer Log #3

For my editing today I added the sounds and background music. All these sounds were from uncopyrighted music sites, which are included in more detail in this post, so please click this for more information.
 
Above is a screenshot showing the sounds 
I downloaded which I moved into my files.

Above is a screenshot representing me adding the music into my teaser trailer using Final Cut Pro X. The second picture shows I adjusted the volume of the clip, making the music fade in, at the beginning of the video. The sounds are of an alarm and an eerie background music, by making these both fade in, I believe it will sound more professional and seamless.
