Examples of Sound

Examples of Sound that could be used in The Opening Sequence

This is an example of a piece of music that could be used in our opening sequence. This is a very intense, spooky piece of music which can help build up the tension in the scene. I think this music sounds quite good in the way that it has the high and low notes making some parts more intense than others. This could be used when the shot of the people walking away is on, this is because it highlights how they are breathing deeply and getting worried but because the audience are unable to see their faces a suspicious feeling is created by the music.

Here is another example of music. This could be used in the background of the shots when they are washing the blood off the hands because the music has a continuous beat in it that sounds similar to a hospital machine bleeping. Therefore this highlights how they are thinking about the person they have hurt and are starting to worry about what they have done. This will create a feeling of worry for the audience because it will be when clues are starting to be revealed meaning the music feels as though it is building up and up to the answer.

This is the third example. This I feel is the most intense piece and is possibly another option for when the bullies are walking away. This is because it will increase the pace of the scene and make it more intense and worrying for the audience. The way the beat increases could indicate how scared the bullies are getting at the realisation of what they have done. It will build up the emotions in the scene and make the audience ask themselves what is going to happen next.


The clip below is one of our chosen sounds that we have decided to use in our opening sequence. The reason for this is because it is a very dramatic sound that draws in the audience and expresses how something bad is about to happen. The intensity of the water dripping gives that suspicious feeling. It is a very loud sound that will grasp the attention of the audience
