Music for our Production

As our Opening Sequence is a Drama/Thriller non-diegetic asynchronous sounding music is used to incorporate the camera work and mis-en-scene to produce tension and dramatic irony, as most of the Opening Sequence involves the Antagonist following the Protagonist.This ends up creating a relatively sinister touch to the narrative. The instruments that would be good for this scene would be strings, as these were used to create tension and suspense in the 1975 movie "Jaws", in which its soundtrack was composed by John Williams. Another element of the music that would complement our Opening Sequence is including a slow tempo, as a fast tempo would connote a chase as opposed to the slow and very sly movements the Antagonist is making. The slow music builds the tension between the two characters as they are walking through the forest. It gives the audience an idea of mystery, due to the fact that they do not know what will happen to the Protagonist.
