What a difference sound makes in a film! While we started editing sound with a vague plan of how we would proceed, there were constantly new ideas being thought of for how our sound could be improved.

Official Soundtracks

These are the two soundtrack we used for our film. Both videos are recordings of stereo typical horror movie sounds, however the first clip is only 2 minutes while the second clip is over an hour long.

When working with the shorter clip, we only used the first 15 seconds for the last part of our film because this had the most dramatic effect. These few seconds featured a very dramatic rise in pitch and was perfectly matched with our female protagonists scream.

From the second soundtrack, we recorded approximately 60 seconds from it and used that for the entire second half of the film. Putting this track in correctly was difficult because we needed to be sure that it would sound good with the sounds of footsteps and city traffic that we already had in the film. In order to make all the different tracks work together cohesively, we changed the volume levels on each track several times until it sounds just right.

In the screenshot shown above, you can see the one long recording of sound that we put in towards the end of the film, which helps allude to the girls capture.
