No Sound

We have decided to have no non-diegetic music in our film opening. The decision stems from the fact that we wanted the tension to be raw without any sound distracting the audience from the action, for example in the film "Back To The Future" (1985) a lot is revealed through the opening sequence of the character Doc Brown, even though it is not obvious that you are learning about the character it makes you want to watch the rest of the film. The diegetic ticking of all the clocks is all you need to be hooked into the film and intrigue you as the camera pans through the room.

We want our film to have a similar effect but in a different sense as we want it to be thrilling and intense and we wanted it all to be natural to add to to the eeriness and make it more relatable to the audience and resonate with them more, which is what we aiming for.
