Music Choice

For the opening scene of our thriller we felt that for our film to have the explosive introduction we wanted we had to find the perfect music choice.

On the website freeplaymusic.com there was a wide range of search types we could do so we searched for key words that we felt would fit our opening scene, words like "Dark, mysterious and eerie". After testing many different songs one appeared called Notica after listening to the song several times we felt that the song was perfect for a thriller, with an extremely fast pace at the beginning of the song to suit the chase scene, and the occasional drops in both pace and volume which we felt would go well with the interrogation scene, even for the parts of which we wanted the dialogue to appear in our film we could simply change the volume of the song in the editing suite, so both the images being shown on screen and the music fit nicely.

The biggest issue we had with the song was that of its length, the song itself is 1:08 long where as our film is around 1:30 long. Fortunately, we were able to put the same song on twice, and simply cut the part of the song we didn't want so they both run very smoothly, we felt it all went well as you can hardly notice the two copies of the song.
