Research in planning - sound

- For the sound of our soundtrack for the opening two minutes of our horror film we want it to be mysterious as we want the audience to feel more engaged and involved within the film as the music shall build up tension and make the audience gain anxiety.It shall make them question what's going to happen and that something bad is going to happen so it shall leave them in the lerch with what's going to happen. We are going to make the soundtrack music link with what's going to happen within the narrative.

- We have done some research of other horror films which our horror is similar to so we can get some ideas for our soundtrack. From researching horror genre films gave us some ideas of what kind of music to include in our opening two minutes, the horror films which we researched and looked at used a soundtrack which used tense music which the horror genre films tend to include. However, some horror films we looked at didn't include a soundtrack in there opening two minutes which also gave a tense effect as the silence shall make the audience suspense as they shall be waiting for what is going to happen next. Even though the silence worked within the opening two minutes we have decided to include a soundtrack as it linked with our opening two minutes.

- For one of our lessons we have used this music thing called cube base which we can make our own music from, we experimented with different sounds which link to the theme and the sound we want for our horror, it was hard to find the right sound which is going to be included in our sound track but we want something that hasn't been used for and something different as we want our horror to be more appealing to the audience and something that hasn't been done before within the horror filming industry. The thing which we shall probably do is film our opening two minutes first then are which sounds go with the opening two minutes.
