Music

Welcome back!!

Today I decided to do some research on soundtracks often used for mystery films.

Although you may not realize it, the sounds and dialogue are just as important as the visuals. With this, my group and I started to freak out a bit. The project is due next week and we realized that we haven't considered music and dialogue into our storyline.

Yesterday though, Gaby went up to our teacher and asked her if dialogue was necessary for our film. And with our luck, she said no, it is not needed.

We were so glad to hear this just because we always thought dialogue wouldn't be necessary for our film and for that reason haven't talked about it.

Now... MUSIC

Music is a must. Without music or some sort of sound the film seems very plain, or even awkward. With this I chose to do some research on sound tracks that are used in mystery films.

In this webpage, they listed plenty of different soundtracks used by famous mystery and crime films today. I noticed that most of them are very suspenseful and thrilling with high sounds and low sounds. There are also some very upbeat kind of songs similar to what I had in mind from previous blog post.

Using this information we plan on using this some upbeat songs during the indoor scenes but than use the thrilling and suspenseful songs during the outside scenes.

Until next time!
