Our Background Music


This is the audio that we used as the backing track of our film opening.

We asked a fellow student, Shannon Balram if she could play her composition for us. She recorded herself playing it. This composition was originally a song; we thought it was better as an instrumental version.
This enabled us to have copyright-free music that we didn't have to pay for.

We decided that the piece by Shannon Balram was suitable for our piece because of its fairly slow pace and the emotions it invokes in audiences. It tells them that the situation is far from ideal for the characters, connotes the main characters mood and creates an atmosphere that feels quite fragile.

For a reference, we looked at "Remember Me" whose score fits our preference of a fragile atmosphere being created. As well as this there are points in the score where the volume and pace increases which connotes an increase in the intensity of the characters emotions.
