Music and Sound

(Created Using Powerpoint)

When it comes to choosing music it is important to have the right sound. It can give the audience the sense of the atmosphere setting and background of the film. Most people believe music expresses both the emotion of a character and words that cant be expressed yet cant be held in. It tells a story of its own and picking the wrong music can change the meaning of the scene/film in general. Music can also heighten drama within a specific scene. But because when choosing our music for our opening it has to be copyright free we can use creative commons as it will make it easier to select for example ;

Grime 

Grime originates from London which is one of the reasons why I can use this song in the opening of our opening scene because of our stroy line and the songs lyrics it correlates. Grime is also associated with youths as it was first introduced by artists such as Dizzee Rascal therefore incorporating will show a stereotypical element into our opening scene.

Reggae

our inspiration for our opening scene is 'La Haine'. we saw how well reggae fit with their background in the title credits which we can incorporate. As our opening will be similar in terms of sub genre and narrative it will correlate.  Although with our story line people would think it does not go together however reggae is easy going music almost weightless which will be presented in the opening scene of our film.
