The Call

'The Call' is an orchestral piece that Morgan found for our opening sequence. It is Royalty Free which means we can use it without the owners consent.

It starts off quiet and crescendos until it reaches the peak at about 1:13 and then at 1:30 it goes quiet again. My favourite thing about this song is that it starts off with a quiet piano which gives a sense of calm. As the crescendo builds up, violins are added which slightly makes it more intense. Then a cello is introduced which is a deep, rich instrument that makes the intensity rise and helps crescendo and build up the piece.

All of this will help bring suspense to our piece and engage the audience. I want the tension to rise as the audience is watching our opening sequence as it fills their minds with many questions. Who is he? Who are those girls?

The clip is 4:19 minutes but obviously we won't use the whole clip, so we will cut it at around 1:50 as thats a quiet part containing only piano. We plan to time the music to our opening sequence so that it goes quiet when there is a non-diegetic sound of a phone ringing, so that the audience can hear the phone ringing. Also, the fact that it goes quiet makes the audience wonder what is going to happen, and then the opening sequence ends, which makes the audience want to watch more to find out what happened.

Along with this, we will be playing voice recording by Morgan and I. They are voice recordings which were taken at the police station, a few days after Yasmin went missing. This is all the non-diegetic music we will use as if we have more it may become distracting and also sound messy.
