Sounds Of Music

   In a few of my earlier blogs I have mentioned that while on the search for copyright free music, I found a song on the website Bensound (specifically under the cinematic category) that I really enjoyed and instantly knew it could work well with our opening.  I showed the song to Catalina and she felt that the song really had the potential to be incorporated into our opening. With that being said although we really liked it, we knew that before we made any decisions about the music, we had to test it out with our scenes to determine if they were a good fit. Prior to filming we did a test run of our scenes and had come to the realization that this song, also called "Memories",  works great with our opening!

    "Memories" really captured my attention because it fit a lot of the qualities we were looking for when on the hunt for the perfect song. For starters, Catalina and I both agreed that we wanted a more laid back style of song. Given that our opening takes place in the early hours of the day as a young female completes her morning routine, it would only make sense to have a song that is relatively relaxed and not too chaotic. This song first begins with a few, soft beats and a quite a lot of piano sounds that are overlapped. Right when the song begins, is when the opening truly begins and the audience will be able to interpret her actions of getting out of bed and completing other tasks. "Memories" also met the standards of what we were looking for in a song. Although, we did want a song that was more relaxed with softer beats and no lyrics, we did not want a song that was almost gloomy and depressing. This song is the perfect mixture of of relaxed and a bit of liveliness that we aimed to utilize within our opening.

Here's the song! http://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music/cinematic
