R&P Soundtrack music (non Copyright)


Most movies open with some sort of non diegetic sound which means that only the audience can hear it. The reason for this is that it will psychologically make people will be able to identify the movie with the soundtrack and also to give the audience a feel of the movie. One example of this is Rocky where people still identify and associate the soundtrack with Rocky. this also helps the audience remember the movie. Another example is the James bond movie where they have the same soundtrack that people asosiate with bond, but also have a sub soundtrack which is a famous song. I will use the most recent movie skyfall as a further example. The sub soundtrack used in this is Adele's song;Skyfall which is a huge hit and also think about James bond when listening to it. This is why i will need the perfect soundtrack, not only to set the scene but also to ensure that it compliments the opening two minutes and thus the audience will remember it better.

The use of sound in urban action films:
In Urban-action movies, soundtracks have quite a quick tempo to it because it must complement the fast pace of the action movie. As I am doing an Action movie, i will be looking for a soundtrack like this. Moreover it is vital that we find a non copyright soundtrack to ensure that we don't break the law.



The reason I have chosen this non-copyright soundtrack is because it has a lot of sound and offers different elements and tempos so we can edit the right sound for the right time. For example, we will have one character that has just got beaten up and so we will use the heartbeat sound effect that is also on this soundtrack (towards the end.)  Moreover, there is a fast pace section in this soundtrack which we will use during the fight to complement the fast cuts and help the audience identify that the fight is fast paced.
