Sound Planning

Sound Planning

What Sounds should be used for our film opening?

As a group when this question came up we took 3 things into consideration.

1. In youth drama's what kind of music is usually used?
2. What kind of music relates to what is going on in our film opening?
3. What music will draw in our audience from the minuet they hear it?

As the idea behind our film opening came from the BBC film "Murdered by my boyfriend", we watched the film opening to listen to the music and SFX that was used.

We felt that the calm music with narration over would not work for our style of Film opening.





We decided to explore into Urban music which is popular amongst the type of youth that is in our Film Opening.
We chose a urban song by a popular artist named stormzy, as our inspiration.


We hope to use this as inspiration and then make our own edited version.
We also hope to add in Foley sounds such as Police sirens, pigeons flapping, moving cars and text message notifications.
