Non-diagetic sounds and music for Final Production

The composition for our companies introduction that I was previously unsure of has been dis-guarded for our final production, however, I still believe it was a vital practise that aided me with the next few compositions.


I firstly listed what I needed for the non-diagetic sounds:
  1. A heartbeat - possibly sped up
  2. Atmospherically suspenseful sound-scape
  3. Thrilling music - identifiable for the Killer

I secondly listened to all of the individual available sounds on the programme, searching for base rhythms that could stimulate emotions I wanted on my list. Once I had found these, I dragged them onto the editing section. Then I searched for both slow and fast paced rhythms, to merge with the base. Once found, to narrow my selection, I combined them to test which sounds went well with others and which sounds were not as useful. This was a long-winded process, although I did enjoy it and became excited nearing the finished possible sounds.

Bellow is a screen shot of the sound-scape for the Killer's introduction, a suspenseful piece, exemplifying the Killer's abnormal behaviour and indicating his intentions; creating the scene of impending doom for our victim.

This is a screen shot of the intended heartbeat used as the Killer approaches the victim; in-co-operating a pulse underneath the heartbeat made a suspenseful atmospheric effect, I created this to encourage stimulation of the audiences heartbeat.


  
Having completed the sounds through Logic Pro, I double checked with Patrycja, the editor, who agreed and copied them on her pen-drive to edit and merge them with the intended clips.

I can't wait to hear and see the final production!

Keep following :)
