Sound

Sound plays a major part of any film production, and so we hope to in cooperate the following sounds in our opening scene.

Background Music (non-diegetic sound):

Research into the action genre shows that high paced upbeat music is key, and so we hope to find something similar to this by looking for copyright free music on YouTube and perhaps look into buying a certain piece of websites similar to audio jungle. 

We hope to use music with various beat drops so that we can edit our jump cuts accordingly to convey a sense of motion and mystery. As the background music will be the most prominent piece of sound, we will use few diegetic sounds over the top so that everything flows together nicely without something looking out of place.

Water Splash (diegetic sound):

When an actor has been bumped into, the water falls from her cup and onto the ground, revealing Joe Lee, adding a sound effect of the water splashing will help reinforce this moment of chaos and draw the audiences attention to the credit. 

We will plan and use the sound from the splash it self rather than using post production sound effects as it will be easier to pair the sound with the action instead of trying to match them up in post.

Phone Ping (diegetic sound):

Near the start, we plan for it to be quiet whilst the camera moves around the table, and so when the phone pings this will start the action and get things moving. 

When this happens it draws attention to the phone as the camera switches angles so that the audience cant see what's on the phone creating suspense as they wonder why the character is rushing to leave the house. We will use a sound effect from the iMovie library or download one off YouTube.
