...Music! As we are approaching our editing period of the filming process, a very essential part of our opening is the sound. We have been discussing the best way to approach this matter for weeks already; we couldn't decide entirely, but I bring you today the answer. As our film is targeted mostly to an older generation, we decided that the smartest decision was to include music in the background and not a narrative from Maya, since that could come up as an informal way to start the film.
Narrations are usually seen in shows that are mostly targeted to a younger audience, such as Jane the Virgin. These sometimes come off as informal and could affect the way the viewer rates and enjoys the film.
When looking for the best fitting sound to include in our opening, we researchers day and night. Upon the hundreds of exploring pages we came up with, we found that the best thriller openings included sharp noises and dramatic music. When talking about those sharp noises, I mean those sounds that along the movie have a meaning. An example of this is the movie Searching (2018) that the opening includes various noises of computer tiles; this correlates with the whole movie and its theme since the movie is being viewed through a computer screen, and Margot's dad ends up finding the answer through the information displayed in her computer. With that being said, we will be incorporating distinctive noises of Maya and Lucy running and walking. Also at the beginning when she grabs the pills in her cabinet we will make sure it is distinct as well for the viewers to remember that scene along with the movie.
When talking about the background music being used, we looked for many realty free music online that would display the right setting for the song. Some of the ones we found are:
1- Sunshine by Danijiel Zambo
2- Heat Up by All Good Folks
3- Fiyah by FE77A
However, we are still looking for the best suiting song for our film oppening.
