Sound

There are going to be two different types of soundtracks throughout the opening sequence of our film. The first scene will have a low resonant sound that will be played throughout the entire scene. This will create a sinister feel to the beginning, and make the audience feel as if something is not right. As well as this we might add sounds of footsteps or a clock ticking to add to the effect of the dream.

The second scene will have completely different music, emphasizing the fact that the first scene is a dream and the next scene is a normal day. Similar to the first scene we have thought about adding sounds over the top of the clips, and this will be during the editing stage. An example would be making the toaster have an exagerated sound. As a group we decided to not include any dialogue in these scenes, due to the fact that we wanted their soul focus to be on what is happening within the frame and make sure there are no destractions.

This is an example of sound we could possibly use in our movie.

We may use a diegetic sound similar to this for the scene which involves toast being ejected from the toaster. This is because we discussed how this would work during filming, and came to the conclusion that the sound picked up by the camera from our toaster wouldn't be as effective and 'strong' as putting a soundtrack over it.
