Sound is a key element we have to consider when planning our opening. We will need to consider what sounds are going to be in each show and also how we will get those sounds. Any music used must be royalty free so we need to take this into consideration. However, there are ways around this, for example we can download music from royalty free websites or create them ourselves.
Sound can have a huge impact on a film. The music used in our opening will help establish the atmosphere and will reflect the mood of the duration of the film. It is not necessary to follow the generic conventions of a style in music. Not following these conventions will have an impact on the way our opening is viewed. It could surprise the audience and make them feel unsure of what they are viewing, resulting in a strange atmosphere being created. It may also cause the audience to think they are viewing a film of another genre, making the later events a surprise and shock.
We will need to consider the conventions of non-diegetic music within psychological thrillers. This will help show us the style of music we may want to use within our opening, and what effect they could have.
We will also want to consider if and diegetic sounds will be heard, for example, we are considering having only diegetic sound in the scenes outside. This would highlight the significance of them and hint at their importance for the rest of the film. As we would only be having natural sounds, we will consider using the pholey effect to help enhance these sounds.
