SOUND

Soundtrack;
We used a soundtrack during the first 2 minutes, and although the music is quite slow and steadily paced, the action is lively to hook the audience. We got our music from 'Freeplay', a legal, copy-right free site where you can type in the search engine the type of music you're looking for. It is designed for people making short films like us that have no financial gain and may be using it for educational purposes, which we were. After downloading the song we had a little trouble as it was 10 seconds too short, which is quite a long time out of 2 minutes, so we replayed the first ten seconds twice at the beginning which we felt was barely noticeable and the best way around the problem.

Non/ Digetic Sound;
We used a lot of digetic sound, for example; the sound of walking, talking, opening doors, and general background noises.
We also Non-Digetic sound such as; the background music.

Planning;
We planned right from the beginning to have sound going the whole duration of the opening, but we had difficulty finding the perfect background sound. We wanted something eerie, but innocent and childlike, like a creepy lullaby. This was because we wanted the audience to feel unsettled. For a short period we considered only having this music for our flahsbacks, but upon listening to this it sounded strange, and not in a good way! So we carried on the search for the perfect music, and found it.
