Sound

For the creation of the soundtrack for our film, we used a combination of musical instruments, including funky bass and drum, emotional piano, rock guitar. These were used in order to create a dramatic, emotional and suspense effect. We took the inspiration to create this music from such films like 'oceans eleven', as the story line follows the same genre as ours.

During the editing part of the production, we attempted to combine the change in beat of music coraponding with a change in shot, for example in the 'stop time' effect, the drum beat came in to signify that he has successfully cheated when looking at his opponents cards, as we felt that this created good effect

The voice over effect was vital in our film as it is the part of the minor amount of dialogue that is evident in 'face down'. To do this, we took the individual with the accent that sounded like he was from the London area, as we felt that this would be the type of environment that is typical in a dark, gangster film. The process was simple as the individual recorded himself reading the script using a voice recorder, from there we imported it onto Adobe Premier Pro. Where we then deleted the recordings that was unneeded, or the ones where mistakes were apparent, and then we corresponded the relevant recording to the correct point in the shot.
