Possible sound choices

As we drew up our storyboard, possible soundtracks were thought of to go along with each clip in the scene. Each shot gave us an idea of how the sound track should go.

We came to the conclusion that it would be suitable for a lot of diegetic sound. This means the audience will feel more involved in the action that is taking place.
First of all, our main character is running leisurely - this gave us the option for the sound of feet hitting the ground as he goes along. We will have to take into account the different types of terrain the character is runinng on, for different sounds, which will make the scene more realistic. Running also gives us the option for some sort of breathing in the background, to show his energy.
Other diegetic sounds in the background could be played too, for example, the wind and its effects (eg, trees swaying), cars and animals (birds chirping).
Another main diegetic sound could be the sound of the music playing on his ipod, it will have to be slightly muffeled though, as he is listening to it also. When the time comes where his headphones fall out, the music could either stop, or get slightly clearer, depending on how eerie we would like the scene to seem.

The non diegetic soundtrack could be played all throughout the opening. This could include eerie sounds, drumbeats and possibly even the sound of the characters heartbeat to show the tension in the scene.

We will conclude to what our final soundtrack should be like when the time comes to use our resource garageband to see what soundclip options we have.
