Music Analysis

The music in this scene is a mix of diegetic and non-diegetic sound. The music that plays is very eerie, however gradually picks up to which causes suspense and tension in the audience. This is constant throughout the film. Non-diegetic sound is also present in the backdrop. This gives the audience an insight of the setting and makes the audience feel as if they are there.




In this film the music picks up slowly creating a feel of suspense and tension, making the audience wonder what will happen next? The music is played on a piano, the piano gives it a eerie feel almost as if it is music that would be heard in a haunted or ghostly manor. This creates a uncomfortable feel and the music's change in pitch causes the audience to feel on edge. The music also speeds up as the scene progresses and the increase in the tempo of the music is almost as if it is meant to replicate a heartbeat. 

In the SE7EN opening, the music is very repetitive and remains constant throughout but there are non-diegetic noises scattered throughout with breaks up the regularity of the music. This suggest that there is a sinister undertone to what otherwise would be a very run of the mill song for a thriller opening. It also relates to the story of the film as the killer is very meticulous, calculated and regiment but in a very sinister way.

Preliminary

IN this preliminary scene we tried to implement what we had learnt about camera angles and continuity editing. When editing the scene we tried to make the transitions as smooth as possible to allow for a professional end product. I believe that this objective was achieved by the end

If we were to redo the preliminary we could try to implement lighting techniques not only would this allow us to create and manufacture the desire effects or undertones but it could also add to the professionalism of the end product, if done correctly. There were also some parts of the preliminary where the continuity could have been better, e.g. there could have been things that look exactly alike or at the ver least similar. So of the camera techniques that we have room for improvement as they were not as smooth or as clean as they could have been
