After looking through many different types of music styles and genres then seeing if they fit with our film, Gemma and I have decided on a piece of music from the movie Dead Silence - which is from the Horror genre, allowing us to relate it to our film. By being able to relate it to our film, we found it built the tense and anxious atmosphere. We thought this piece of music worked the best out of the several pieces that we looked at, as it fitted perfectly with our sequence of clips especially when the slides change from being the friends laughing and joking around, to the killer walking behind them.
We tested this piece of music with the video and found that it was very nursery rhyme styled at the beginning which worked well, as well as at the end of our film - as though it started with a bookending; when the best friend has been found hanging from the tree. This part of the music made it possible to have smooth transition when we were cutting the music, making it possible for us to take out some of the fast pace music, as the diatonic tones were pretty much the same through out. Therefore making it creepy, building tension when watching as the music is gradually getting louder.
