Movie trailer sounds for games, animation, and video edits

Brass braam

One enormous low horn blast that swells and decays into a rumble, the signature opening hit of a trailer or a teaser.

Tension riser

A synthesized tone that climbs in pitch under a swelling noise bed and stops at its peak, for building to the next cut.

Title boom hit

A heavy low thud with a short sub-bass tail and a faint metallic clang, made to land on a title card or a logo.

String stab

A violent screech of high violins that cuts off hard, for a shock cut or a twist in a thriller trailer.

Reverse swell

A reversed cymbal building over three seconds into a hard cut to nothing, the classic lead into a silent beat.

Slow drum hits

Three heavy hollow drum thuds with gaps between them, a countdown that marks each new title in the sequence.

Ways to use a movie trailer sound effect

Hit the title card with a heavy boom

A single boom on the frame the title appears gives a trailer, a game reveal or a channel intro its weight in one hit.

Build tension before the first image

A riser climbing in the dark fills the gap before the picture arrives, in a film teaser, a product launch or a game announcement.

Open a teaser with a huge low blast

A brass braam sets the scale from the first second, whether the clip promotes a feature, a series or a podcast.

Suggest something big is coming

Slow drum hits with gaps imply a threat the audience has not yet seen, in a trailer, a boss reveal or a documentary opener.

FAQs

What is a movie trailer sound effect?
It is one of the short, loud cues that trailers lean on: a braam, a riser, a boom, a string stab. They mark cuts, build suspense and announce the title, and most are one to five seconds of tightly shaped sound.
Where can I get trailer sounds for a video?
Describe the cue and generate it. Trailer packs are widely reused, so a braam you download may already sit under dozens of other teasers, while a generated one is made to your description.
How do I make a custom trailer braam or riser?
Say what the cue is built from, brass for a braam or a synthesized tone for a riser, then how it moves, such as climbing in pitch and cutting off at the peak. Adding a hard stop helps it land on a cut.
What is the difference between a riser and a braam?
A riser builds over several seconds and asks for a release, so it goes before a cut. A braam is a single huge blast that is the release itself, so it goes on the cut. Many trailers use a riser into a braam.
Can I use these trailer sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. The cues are generic and describe no particular film or studio.
Why does my trailer cue feel weak against the picture?
Often it is the timing: put the peak of the boom or the end of the riser exactly on the cut. If the hit still feels thin, generate a version with a longer low tail so the sub-bass carries into the next shot.
