All throughout the planning phase of the media product, the entire group was thinking of what we could use as the most suitable soundtrack to our trailer. the search from the sound too us through various sites such as iTunes, Soundcloud and the Shared Area of the iMac's and school computers.
iTunes:
We started to use iTunes as a good way to simply preview the music we were interested in using for our final piece. As iTunes only really specialises in copyrighted music we didn't.'t really look into any great depth at the songs available through them as we see that as a potential stumbling block. However, after spending hours on end searching for the best track to use, we decided to pay 99p for the Prodigy's 'Firestarter'.
Soundcloud:
When we started the search for the music it was suggested that we tried to look through a site called Soundcloud which provided both copyrighted, but more importantly, un-copyrighted music for people to download and use for the purpose that suited them. Although it was suggested as a good site to find music, we as a group couldn't decide on a track that would complement our final piece. So the search turned to the default, shared area's on the school PC's and iMacs.
Default Music:
after searching through both iTunes and Soundcloud, and fining nothing, we stared to look at the default instrumentals that we already on the school system. After quite a bit of searching through the files, we discovered one that sounded like a soap theme tune that we all agreed on. This theme tune would be the one people would associate with the soap, we didn't want it to feature all throughout our trailer. Towards the end, when the drugs scene begins, we want the music to switch to the fast paced, loud bass, music of the prodigy's 'Firestarter'.
