Background Music Ideas

Mu short film is going to rely heavily on the background music to help create the mood as well as helping to keep the audience engaged. I felt it was important to spend a considerable amount of time researching relevant songs. I decided to feature two songs in my film in order to represent two different moods, the first song I decided should be Happy upbeat modern song in order to help portray the character as a normal teenage girl, the second song I decided should be slower sadder song to represent the change in mood/ heartbreak the character is having to cope with. After listening to multiple songs I have managed to narrow it down to three songs each.

Sad songs

How Long Will I Love You - Ellie Goulding

Skinny Love - Birdie
Hopeless Wanderer - Mumford and Sons

Happy songs

Changing - Sigma ft. Paloma Faith
Use somebody - Kings of Leon

The Saturdays - If This Is Love

Target A

To achieve my target my research, planning and evaluation must be detailed, effectively communicated and presented digitally, using a wide variety of formats. I need detailed
research into similar products and target audience and to show the process of planning by including excellent work on shotlists, drafts, storyboards, scripts, locations and props. I need to show full evidence of the research and planning informing the construction process.
My evaluation must reflect my excellent understanding of forms and conventions, an understanding of the use of new media throughout the stages of production, the way my ancillary and primary tasks combine effectively. There will be an excellent understanding of the significance of audience feedback.
My production work, across the formats, will demonstrates excellent creativity and imagination as I seek to make them as convincing as possible and it will also reflect my mastery
in technical skills such as controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot sizes, close attention to mise-en-scène, appropriate transitions and use of sound.
