Soundtrack

The soundtrack for our opening sequence is mainly RnB, and eerie at some point. We needed some music that youngsters would listen to, to make sure the target audience knew that it was their type of film. The music we made had a lot of bass and beats, but was quite mellow and slow, to show that the teens were calm whilst drinking. We used bass, with guitar and club beats mixed in. In this day and age, young people who are slightly rough and wear certain clothes would be called chavs, so we used the kind of music that chavs would listen to. The club beat was mixed in to give it a bit of tune and make it lighter.
When our female character (Rosie) sees our male character (Tom), the music gets slightly eerie and we added something in to make it seem abnormal. This works really well with our storyboard as the eerie music is just at the right time for the picture of Rosie looking at Tom.
The beat at the end of the soundtrack was put there seperately to the rest of the bass and tune etc so it could be used to introduce a new scene. For example, Rosie walks home and into a house and goes upstairs to her room. As she is walking towards her room, the bass and tune fade out and we are left with the beat. Rosie then walks to put her stereo on, and the music changes into just the beat, as if that is the music she has put onto her stereo.
