Music Idea

I understand that sound is very important in films as they create another atmosphere which can lead the audience to become more interested. Also it can hint on events that may happen later on or even exaggerate what is seen at the same time.



After watching the opening sequence of 28 Day later, I understand that having a light high pitched soundtrack is a convention of horror films, it then gradually becomes louder (more textures and range of sounds, including at least one layer of low frequency sound) and increases in tempo as the film goes on. The visuals are usually cut in time with the music, rather than the other way around.






The accompaniment for my film opening will be a song created by a friend of mine. He goes by the name of Xenon and his music is uncopyrighted.




Xenon's genre is dubstep, (a modern pop style.)
-71% of dubstep listeners are aged between 16 – 25.
-That majority of those listeners are with 69% of the audience being male and 21% being female.

I think this song is really relevant to what I want the audience to think, as it is aimed at young people; ages between. Eerie sounding music are featured in horror films; to hint that something bad is about to happen, so the audience will start to fear something.
That's the response I would like.
