For our film opening there is no dialogue used as we felt this had the best effect for building up tension, which is especially effective during the opening. Throughout the duration of our film we used tense non-diegetic music which climaxes towards the end when most of the important and the biggest build up of action occurs.
We searched for non-copyright royalty free music to use within the opening to make it as professional as possible and work with the narrative of the opening well. Many tracks suited the genre and built up tension well but only a few we found suited not only this but the speed of the narrative as well. We wanted a piece that gradually picked up speed and started slowly, gaining tension at the same speed as the narrative of the opening and chose the track 'Electro Zombies'. Also, we chose another piece of music to end the tension and fade out towards the end of our opening as we feel this suited the ending better than the original piece did, making the audience wonder what is going to happen next, this track is called 'Lusus Naturae'. The two pieces of music were merged through a gradual fade therefore, causing no sudden change or anomaly in the opening to occur.
