Children's Film: Editing Music

We worked on the music and sound effects for our children's film. First we did research on the kind of music used in children films and what techniques are used in chase scenes. We then took these ideas and incorporated them into our music.

We used GarageBand and found clips of music that we felt fit with our video and made it slightly comical to help lighten the mood and make it more family friendly. we added in fills in the drums and piano solos to keep the music interesting and to add dynamics to our piece.

We also made music for our 'western-style scene' where their is a confrontation between the two supernatural characters. For this we researched more films and examples of old western-films. For example,  the iconic scene in "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" which you can see below. We then went back to GarageBand and found music to best suite our scene. Sound effects were also found on GarageBand. For example, the sound effect when the main character wakes from his dream and the background noise in the corridor.
