In order to appeal to the target audience and to fit in with the typical conventions of our genre, any soundtrack that we use will have to have a tense and sinister feeling to it. The non diegetic sound is something that we hope to run throughout the film opening, though it may be required to lower the sound so that any planned diegetic sound can be heard. The soundtrack won't be a film score as we don't know anyone that can compose the music, so we will have to find a copyright free sound track that has a tense theme to it in order to fit the chosen genre.
The diegetic sound that we plan on using will only be in specific sections of the film opening. There will be ambient sound in some parts where the continuous soundtrack is lowered, to create a more eerie atmosphere; as well as emphasising sounds such as a twig breaking - this sound is quite a stereotypical sound in horror/thriller film. Other diegetic sounds will include one of the characters talking and laughing, and a scream will be included in the end to create more drama and tension.
As part of our film opening are flashbacks, we will try to put and effect on some of the laughing that we record to give it a distant sound, something that makes it sound as if it is in the past. By doing this it will create more tension within the film opening and appeal to the target audience.
The non diegetic soundtrack will be lowered in some parts of the film so that either diegetic sound or ambient sound can be heard in order to have the desired effect. An example of this is that we plan to lower the music so that the sound of a twig snapping is heard, which will create tension and drama that will appeal to the target audience. There will also be a scene where we plan on having the protagonist holding the camera and running, to give a point of view shot, and within this we will exaggerate the sound of her breathing, as this is often a stereotypical feature of horror/thriller movies.
