Audio

I have found a fantastic website called premiumbeat.com which contains a huge variety of music and sound effects that I can put in my film. everything on premiumbeat.com is royalty free so i can download it and include it in my film opening. out of the hundreds of beats I found a few that sounded really good and sounded like the kind of opening music that I imagined.


E.g.

  • No survivors- this would match very well with the visuals of the forest and the branches. its an eerie rumble and windy sounding music that would be perfect for the opening of a horror film, it sounds very uneasy and is typically creepy.
  • earth, wind and power- these are sound effects that would match the forest very well, the sounds are combined with instrumental sounds aswell, they are low and dark sounding.
  • calm winds- this is simply a wind sound effect, the sound would make the forest seem cold and empty.
  • suspicious behavior- this instrumental will be perfect for when the killer is sneaking into the house in the background, or when the killer is creeping up on Amy. the music builds up suspense.
  • horrror trailer percussion
Other background scenery noises:
  • cold winter winds
  • fog horn distant perspective
  • police sirens 3
listening to this sound and music has made me notice how effective it can be for a film opening, sound and music is very powerful the sounds exaggerate everything. good sound is very important for a horror film because it can create suspense, make the audience jump and can create an atmosphere. the surrounding becomes more understandable. I have carefully watched and analysed a selection of horror openings such as hush and the ring and i realised that they use a lot of added sound because of how powerful it is. with out the sounds horror films would not have the same effects that they do.

my screenplay


Film titles


Here is a collection of fonts that I would like to use for the film opening, each font I chose for this collage really caught my eye and jumped out at me, which is exactly the purpose that I want the film title to serve. the film title acts as the films signature and symbolizes the film. I think every design here fits the horror genre, some better then overs. the fonts I made larger are the fonts that I prefer and the smaller ones are ones I least prefer. the largest one in the center of the collage is the design that I wish to use because it seems the boldest and clearest. it almost looks dangerous and the word run seems to really suit the design. The film title will appear at the end of the film opening in a sudden, striking way.
