Our soundtrack

Our soundtrack



Above is a link to the music we plan to use in our thriller opening; more specifically our title card. We plan to play the song just after our lead character finishes his pulpy noir monologue. The song would then play over various close up shots of various objects which hint towards the narrative, similar to the opening title sequence of the film se7en. Finally the image featured in our video is the prototype title card we have designed for our thriller, For the final title we plan to have an extreme long shot a derelict building with our protagonist walking into it. I chosen this song as conveys conventional film noir music more specifically I listened to other film noir films, video games and cartoon themes to gain an insight into the general sound of a noir opening. Such music include the theme song for the film LA confidential, the theme song to the video game LA Noir and finally a song from the OST of film noir like anime Big O. Clearly most themes have is the heavy use of saxophones, piano's and trumpets at a slow pace to create a sad and dark mood.

 

 Songs I have used for reference in search of the main theme to our title card
