Soundtrack Analysis

Above, you can see a video of the main piece of background soundtrack non-diegetic music we used in our production: a free piece of music we found off the internet called ‘Bent and Broken’, which we thought sounded fitting for the thriller genre. The song by Kevin MacLeod fits the Horror film genre; but we thought that the piece had thriller connotations within it. The piece had to be cut down for our production, as it was too long and it wasn’t appropriate for all parts of the film, however it does run from the very beginning of our production, through the production company logos, as we thought the music sounded quite dramatic and good for the logo title music.

The second piece of music we use in our production is called All This. This piece of music plays when Karen sees Joe on the floor of the warehouse near the van. Again, we thought this sounded fitting for the thriller genre, but as you will hear, the first minute of music isn't used, because we didn't think that that part of the music was appropriate for our piece. Again, this was a free piece of music made by Kevin MacLeod.
