sounds that will be used in "LUCID"

 On the 9th February 2012 group 6(me, amber, Jayne and Gustavo) were supposed to be filming but due to lack of attendance on Monday it had an impact in today’s lesson, in other words we didn’t film. Instead of filming us as a group assorted ourselves to having roles during the planning, so Jayne and amber were in charge of presentation as we decided that we don’t like our previous presentation, so we wanted to do it again, while Gustavo and I (mark) were in charge of sound which we used sound pro editing for. Me and Gustavo came across many sounds that we would like to employ for “LUCID” with the use of sound pro editing , sound pro editing lets you make and edit music, voice and other audio recording. These are the four main types of sounds that we think that are the most important to use as it will have a big affect on the film “LUCID” and the audience they are: Balalaika loop 08 which is a music that creates suspense and builds tension, this would be portrayed in the film when Jayne’s character is about to get killed by the murderer. The ship-creep music will also be vey useful especially when the camera is panning Jayne’s characters house as it has this sort of deceptive and suspicious sounds , this would be used at the beginning of the thriller as the base. This will help capture the audience attention as they will be sucked into the movie as the audience will get emotions from it whether it is melancholy or downtrodden, in fact excited. On sound pro editor we also looked at what is called environmental sounds, now environmental sounds are sounds from the environment such as the sound of the wind from a window view, the environmental sound we chose to use for “LUCID” was an air-conditioned sound to simulate the sounds of the wind when Jayne’s character opens the window to get some fresh air because it is to hot or something. The booming reverse sound was another sound that we wanted to use during the actual stabbing as it has got that “BOOM” noise to emphasise the hatred and the connection between the knife and the human body. Last but not least ship-ambience which I think is ideal for when Jayne’s character is in the garden doing some pottery before she dies as it all builds up to suspense and gets the audience anticipating and excited at the same time.

We are still going to be using Foley sounds as sound pro editor does not have a particular sound that we need for example the sounds of a knife being taken from a cupboard.

To sum up everything, here is a list of sounds and music that “LUCID” will feature:

1.    Balalaika loop 08

2.    Ship-creep

3.    Environmental sound(air conditioner)

4.    Booming reverse

5.    Ship-ambience
