Music

Next, we will need to be thinking about the music which will be being played during certain parts of the thriller opening. We all decided that it would be much more fun and interesting if we created our own music rather than using and copying someone elses work as this is our thirller opening! To make our music we will be using a software named 'garageband' below i have shown a track which i quickly made to test out the software and get prepared to making the real thing.

Here below are some tracks which have been used in previous thriller films, i will be listening to these tracks and taking to them into consideration when it comes to making my music as they all make your heart race and build tention for the audience. I personally think that the music creates a huge impact on what is going on in the scene as it can tell the audience what is about to happen, for example if someone was walking up the stairs and the beat of the track got faster we would prepare ourselves for something bad to happen.


This music which is found in the film hide and seek comes across as quite mysterious and the humming of a young girl creates suspense as it sounds scary.


Jaws has one of the most classic music which gets the audience heart racing, i could listen closely to this when making my thriller opening as this is a very sucessful piece of music which creates alot of suspense during an interesting and main part of the film.



Eventhough rockys theme tune does not create suspense or tention in any way, i think that this is a very good piece of music to listen to and work with when thinking about my music, the reason for this is it was a great success and when people hear this music back they can tell straight away what film it comes from which i think is very important when thinking and making music.
I will soon blog my final piece of music which we will be using in the opening scene.
