Ideas for Music

For the opening of this thriller film there needs to be a piece of music that will create good tension as well as work with the structure of the scene.

The music that we have chosen is Portishead Wandering Star.
Portishead are a band who formed in Bristol in 1991, this song is taken of the album Dummy which included the single "Glory box", which has been used in many television dramas and films such as Skins as well the The Craft and Stealing beauty.

I couldn't find a video for this song however I found This video on You tube where the song can be heard. We are wanting to extend the opening to be able to use at the beginning of the shot to give the feeling of someones heart beating.

Due to copyright reasons we're hoping this song can be used as it was released over 10 years ago but this will need to be looked into before we can start



We weren't able to use this soundtrack in our thriller due to the copyright being extended to 50 years. Therefore we are changing it to Strauss' 4 last Songs. This will be played when our femme fatale is about to have our victim beaten up.

Evidence of research, copywrite is 50 years unless the band is not signed.
