For our sound we have figured out the different sound effects we are
going to use throughout the opening sequence but we haven't quite
decided on a soundtrack as of yet.
Firstly the scene starts of with a piece of dialogue between an unknown
man and a detective, the first sound effect we are going to use is an
old style telephone ringing and the phone being picked up and the
dialogue will then start to roll, as the dialogue is rolling a quite
quiet ticking sound will be placed underneath the speaking and this will
then start to crescendo as the dialogue is coming to the end and will
then stop when the file is slammed onto the table this then signifying
the start of the soundtrack.
With the soundtrack we actually haven't got one yet but we have a small
idea of what we want to use; something that crescendos as the sequence
rolls to build tension and pace getting the audience gripped not only
with what is happening in the sequence but the sound contributing to the
atmosphere as well. Something that has a rhythm that is continuous but
then has a strong beat in the background giving the whole soundtrack a
hearty melody, also getting inspiration from Sherlock Holmes maybe try
get a soundtrack that has some out of tune instruments to signify age
and history to the hole piece complimenting the old style detective
genre we strongly wanted to recreate.
