Sound Effects

 

*SCARY*

We use a scary sound effect when Adalyn can see the

 demon behind Doctor Benson. The scary effect reflects how

 Adalyn is feeling in this moment. The sound effect will be placed

 over her reaction shot, of a terrified pale face.

 

*SUSPENSE*

All the way through our opening sequence we use sounds

which are used to create suspense and build tension in our audience.

The opening sequence is a build up for the rest of the film,

so we have to engage our audience, and make them want 

to carry on watching. Each time our main character,

Adalyn, see's the demon, so does the audience and each

time we accompany the shot with a suspense filled sound effect, which

keeps the audience hooked.

 

 

 

*WHISPERING AND INDISTINCTIVE VOICES*

The audience will hear a lot of whispers every time Adalyn looks

off camera, as she notices the demon in the corner of her eye.

The quiet voices are used to represent the demon talking to her.

it adds confusion to the audience because they cannot hear

what is being said, or what Adalyn is being told to do.

 

 

 

 

 

*VOICE OVER*

At the beginning of our opening sequence we use a voice over, which

 is talking through an exorcism, which is disturbing for the audience and

quite frightening. it matches our genre of demonic possession well.

The exorcism is placed over a montage of spooky images

 which also link to the genre.

 

 

 

*SCREAMING AND PANIC*

 The audience hear a burst of panic and screaming after the slam

 of the door, giving the impression the have been locked in a room,

with the demon who will cause chaos. Screaming is classic in horror films

and is almost always used. it makes the audience feel un-easy and

helps them to connect with the characters.

 

 

 

 *HEART BEATING*

A real heart beat links with suspense and rising tension. it is classically used in the most frightening scenes in horror films, and it can represent not only the feeling of the characters but also what the audience feels at that moment. We will used the sound of a heart beating at the end of our opening sequence along-side heavy breathing and a worried reaction shot.
