Music Inspiration

        

I think this would be a good song to use in my film opening. The beginning is not too overpowering, allowing a narrator to speak over it if we want one, while the victim is walking. Also, The stop of the music stops at 0:46 seconds, we plan to have the transition of victim switching from walking to running. As this happens we plan to fade into a black screen to further build viewers anxiety of what is about to happen. After this, we thought it would be good to have a montage of following shots of the victim running.


I would also like to mix this song into the end, when Lauren (the victim) is running. This is because this music is at a faster pace, allowing more and more tension to build in the audience. Due to the fast pace of the beat, the music should correlate well with Lauren's fast paced running.

We've chosen to use more than one song/item of music to add to the diversity of the film. Personally, I think it would be quite boring simply using one. The mix can also add to the tension of the film as it could throw the audience off task, not knowing what song is next as well as not knowing what is going to happen next. This also isn't music typically listened to by many if the people in our target audience. This could be viewed as a good thing, in the sense that they will feel less in-tune with the film. None if them would have ever heard the songs being mixed as it will be for our opening. Therefore those who do listen to this music, will feel more familiar with the film. Knowing the music may make them feel as if they know what to expect. The mix if them may add to their confusion.
