MUSIC:
We searched through various pieces of music through Youtube, Soundcloud, and iTunes. After a long search for the music that would accompany the whole of our opening sequence, in particular, we decided on the melancholic sound of the lullaby from Pan's Labyrinth. The piece starts off with a sinister feel, gradually growing more light-hearted as the piece comes to an end - this can be seen as quite ironic as nothing in our opening sequence is light-hearted nor is it a particularly happy film.
These are some music tracks that we tried:
We used this track at the very beginning but found it was repetitive and too short to use for the full length of our opening sequence. It was effective for the short 20 seconds we used it for to open the production.
We used this track called the Fac-Totum by Dine Somme Satan during the park footage in our opening sequence as backing music because it created an eerie atmosphere as we watched the child on the screen. We begun to fade it out slowly so that the track didn't come to an immediate stop, therefore not causing a break in our film.

We used this track throughout the entirety of our opening sequence in order for it to flow better and use sound bridges between location changes to the best effect. In the beginning, the track starts off slowly in a low tone but then begins to change as the pace increases and there is more musical instruments used which is why the volume increases. This track worked well in our piece, in particular, at the end of the sequence it was used effectively as it contrasted against the dark visual representation with the light hearted sound. As the tempo in the track picked up so did the action in our film, for example it changed to a higher pitch and worked well with the heart beat sound when we needed to build suspense and create tension for the audience. The track was also very emotive creating a sad feeling for the audience; in particular at the end of our sequence when it was used as background music for the picture burning.
