Soundtrack

Tracking the Sound

 

-->

A Main aspect as to the intensity of our opening chase scene will be the soundtrack. The soundtrack needs to be building the suspense but not dominating over the actual scene. We have looked at soundtracks from other films and have come to the decision that we will make our own soundtrack. One of the major factors to this decision is the issue with copyright. We would love to use a proper soundtrack from a high rated action film such as 'The Bourne Supremacy'

So instead of using this soundtrack we will base our soundtrack upon this style. the long build up with the increase of volume as the track goes on. the use of drums to keep the pace of the scene up will be very useful although means that we would have to wait until the film is edited before we try mixing a soundtrack into it.

This is the normal practice buy all soundtrack composers a excellent example of this is Casino Royale.although the motif's of the Bond theme is cleverly mixed in and the lead up of suspense until the very end of the action is useful in adding the suspense the audience feels whilst watching it.



Whilst researching different soundtracks in which we could base our own soundtrack on we came across a piece of music in which the ostinatoed phrase and drums created a fast pace building experience. This piece by chance was almost identical to the piece in which we were going to create. Due to the fact that it is non copyright we made the decision to use this piece in our film.
