Our Soundtrack

Below is a video which includes our chosen soundtrack song. It took ages trying to find a song that really fits with the film itself and was especially difficult finding a song old enough. We played through tons of classical music, such as the song from Madame Butterfly, and some jazz and ended up with this. The song itself is mainly linked to our thriller opening via lyrics. Even though at first you wouldn't expect to hear anything quite like this when watching, if you concentrate on the lyrics they tell a story which is easily related to Faye. One line in particular - "We'll take a boat to the land of dreams..." - emphasises that this is Fayes dreaming song, and the spirit which the song expresses is the life she is aiming for.
Some people immediately think the song is too happy for the film, as we found in our feedback, but it is purposely made to be ironic. So overall i am pleased with the song but it would have been good to experiment with many more or maybe more than one. Also adding diagetic together to see what kind of effects could be given.
