Sound Ideas

For our opening sequence we need to think about possible sounds to use, what emotions we want to create with them and if they fit in with our piece. To find some background music we used the website http://www.freesounds.org/ in order to find some good and Copyright Free tracks that we may incorporate into our opening.

The kind of music I find first was a suitable and eerie backing track and I found this:

This music set a kind of eerie feeling that I was thinking in my mind, it is not however going to work on its own. I believe that some non-diegetic tones can play with it in certain places with some diegetic ones.

A diegetic sound that can go with the sound above is this:

The heavy breathing can go with shots of the killer in our opening as they sound like a male breathing as it is a deep sound. The breaths become faster which also works well because it builds the tension and suspense as the opening goes along. Based on his breaths an audience feels a build up to something happening.

Another good sound to use is that of a swing:

The swing makes a squeaky and creepy sound and it goes with the shots that may be added to our piece of kids playing and images of different characters created for our media piece in a sort of flashback.
