Audio

For our soundtrack we wanted an piece of audio that created drama, tension and an element of vulnerability. This criteria lead us to think an orchestral track would be appropriate, but after playback over the filmed material, we didn't' feel it fit the scenes of the car. We looked at soundtracks used on some popular action thrillers, but again, found them unsuitable, on this occasion due to the situation the characters were in. This lead us to looking at what our own musical taste was, as today's' music scene contains a wide range of acoustic/ indie sounds, and listening to our own preferences.

We found some fairly unknown tracks by a band, The Temper Trap and decided one a track titled 'Soldier On'. we feel its fits our criteria perfectly, as the strings on the acoustic guitar create an almost sinister feel, and the occasional high-pitch of vocal emphasises aspects in the sequence, such as the headlights down the alley.
