Music and SFX

Diagetic: For our diagetic sound, we had to re-record a clip of natural sounds, but without the sound of any human activity in it. For this we decide to film on our school field during the half term, as there would be no-one there to interrupt our recording. We were very lucky and were able to capture both the sound of the wind, and faint birds singing in the background, making a very eerie sound clip. We also used the natural sounds of the engine of the car and slamming of the door; heavy breathing and walking to give a more realistic feel to it. 

Non-Diagetic: For our non-diagetic sound we wanted to create the moods we desired, and so looked for sound effects that mirrored this. For the first part we wanted to mirror the very fast-paced and energetic world that the social-media run world is, so we needed a very faced paced and energetic song. We were recommended the opening song from enter the void, which we also knew would be successful in capturing the audiences attention, as it had already been used. 




We also wanted a very subtle but eerie sound effect for the "static shots" we used to establish the empty fairground/world. Nicole, who was in charge of music for our opening, found a very successful track, which was exactly what we were looking for, and worked perfectly to set the scene. We also found a brilliant piece of music for the P.O.V shots of the protagonists running, as we all agreed that we need a piece of music that was very adrenaline pumping, but we also wanted it to build up into a crescendo, as to build up the tension, and that is what it did, so we were very happy with it.
