Final Music

Della and I have spent a lot of time thinking about and discussing the micro-element of music this week and we have chosen the following songs:

Getting ready scenes
Primavera : Ludovico Einaudi.
The soft yet strangely haunting melody creates a sense of relaxation whilst still being quite suspensful, eerie and re-enforcing the horror genre. The music is quite long, however it will be fairly easy to cut as it's quite repetitive.

Dinner date scene
Crane Dance : Ludovico Einaudi.
Chosen for the same reasons as 'Primavera'. We really liked the way it was both creepy and romantic, like our hybrid genre of horror/romance. This scene will hopefully have the monolouge over the top, adding a nostalgic dimension.

Running and Killing scenes
Chase Jill and Fifty Cal : Charlie Clouser (Saw 3D soundtrack)
We decided to go for music from a very conventional horror film as it has strong beats and sounds in it. There is also a crescendo that we can use for the stabbing scenes. I like the beat of "Chase Jill" for the running as it really implies the danger of the situation.
