Creating a Soundtrack for our Film

Music in Our Opening

For our horror opening, we hope to create our own unique music soundtrack for it. This is due to the fact that we believe that the non-diegetic soundtrack is what makes the film stand out from all of the rest and will overall drastically impact the tension and atmosphere of the overall product. Moreover, in our group, all of us coincidentally possess a love for music whether that be composing or playing an instrument, we identified this and then began to test out different sounds to compile together to create the ideal soundtrack.

After many sessions as a group in the music room, creating different sounds and experimenting with different instruments, we finally found a sound we believed would fit well with the opening that we had began to edit. We are yet to decide whether or not to use this soundtrack as it will further require many more editing sessions before it is to our standards. Due to our perfectionist nature, we are aware of how time-consuming this may be which in the long term may negatively affect the quality of our editing. However it is now a creative option that we can fall back on if we do not find the most suitable soundtrack online.
