Soundtrack research:
The following soundtracks that I have listed below are royalty
free! See the links below to see our options for music for our film.
THIRTEEN:
One of the soundtracks that I have got is from the ride ‘Thirteen’
at Alton Towers Resort. The ride itself is a horror ride and is based around
ghosts and spiritual and paranormal activity. There is no lyrics in this
soundtrack, it sounds like something is whispering. There are many sections of
this song that we can use for different parts of our opening two minutes. The song
starts of slow but still scary and then gets more tense and faster the further
in you get. Half way through the soundtrack you can hear nursery rhymes playing
and the sound of someone heavy breathing over the top of it, almost as if they
are running from something or have seen something. This will fit in well with
the scene where charlotte spots the spirit standing in the garden. At the end
of the song there is a countdown in a scary spiritual voice and then you hear a
girl scream which will work well when charlotte spots the figure and is wishing
it wasn’t there.
SMILER:
The next soundtrack I have found is much more tense and has
a heavy beat to it, almost like a countdown to something that is about to
happen or as if something was coming. In the background you can hear faint
laughing, more of a cackle which is quite scary. This soundtrack is a good way
to set the mood for the target audience. I would say that this soundtrack is
more suitable for the scene where charlotte sees how the figure standing in the
garden dies. Half way through you hear a
piercing scream almost as if someone is in pain and then it has people laughing
to the beat of the song which will be a good way of making the audience feel
uncomfortable and intimidated because it will make them think that they are
being laughed at or as if something has control over them.
DARK TENSION RISING:
This soundtrack sounds similar to the Jaws soundtrack in the
sense that is soft and then has big, tense and scary outbursts where the
audience then works out that something is going to happen. In the background of
the tense music you can hear almost as if there’s a choir which can be quite
daunting. When people think of choirs they most likely think of church choirs
which link to death and grave yards which are associated with death. In our
film there is a spirit that is disturbed and is causing fear and trouble to the
real world. A spirit that is meant to be laid to rest or at peace is coming back
for revenge.
