Non Copyright Sound

Before knowing this I started looking myself at different soundtracks that I thought would work well with my opening scene. I listened to some of the soundtracks from the 4 post apocalyptic films we mainly studied, there was one particular sound track I really liked which was "Deer Hunting" from I Am Legend. This is because I like how tense the music is, and that it is not too tense to the point it sounds scary. There has also been another great soundtrack I have found that I would absolutely love to use in my film if it was possible and that is Vicky Chow - Morning Tale: I. Nocturne.

 I think that this is a great song for my post apocalyptic film, if anything I would love to be able to change the order of the song, as I would use the starting 20 seconds for my film in film because it is very slow and calm, then from 21 to around 55 seconds I would use for the apple part of our film when the killer has spotted his victims because it slightly reminds me of "Psycho". From the first minute to around 1 minute and 30 seconds I would love to use towards the 2 characters noticing someone is watching them and them running away because the music gets faster, also for when one of the characters gets shot. From 1 minute and 43 seconds- 1 minute and 47 seconds I was thinking would be great for the part when the female character runs over to her partner after his death because the music is very slow and has piano which I think is great because it slightly sounds aggressive on some notes. From around 2 minutes and 20 seconds- 2 minutes and 30 seconds I think would be great towards the ending perhaps when the female takes the items of significance and the items to survival and the killer starts to follow her. The ending of the song gets slower and quieter which I would also like to fit in towards the end of my film as that would make my film sound very mysterious. I am wanting tense music throughout the majority of our opening scene, I want tense music at the start, then in the film in film I want something slow and towards the end I want something calm  to leave the opening scene as a mystery.

I decided to get in touch with Vicky Chow to ask her for permission to use her piece for my opening scene



We have been given websites that do have non copyright sound tracks and sounds in lessons which we will be using when we start to edit our work. Websites such as https://www.partnersinrhyme.com/pir/PIRsfx.shtml , http://www.freesfx.co.uk/soundeffects/fire_explosions/ , http://www.grsites.com/archive/sounds/category/16/?offset=0  for foley sounds, however we have already created our own foley sounds using our props and recorded the sounds on our phones.
