How music can change how you feel about a film
For this task I filmed a small scene from the 1984 movie 'Splash'. Splash has always been one of my favourite movies right from when I was a child . This scene is called 'Mermaid Beauty' that is filmed . I have tried my best to put this quick, short video together using the editing video app called iMovie on my Ipad . I recommend this app as I do think it is a good, useful application that is free to put quick videos together. I have also tried mixing a lot of different sound effects and music that is available on iMovie to try and create different effects . For example I have mixed jolly, cheerful tunes together to create a playful and comical interpretation. The comical/playful music creates an atmosphere that the mermaid is friendly and happy in her own company. It also could suggest that she likes being on her own and loves exploring,
I have also tried to create more sinister music by mixing a variety of different tunes and sound effects e.g thunder . This music could suggest that she is in deep ,dark, danger from the humans or is a bad character.
The hardest part of this video was trying to create sad music . There wasn't really any low feeling music or sound effects available on IMovie, so it required more time to try and put this together . This sad music could suggest that she is looking for something that she has lost for example she smiles when finding the mans passport, almost like she has been searching and wondering who he was for many years.
I have also noticed by relaying the video several times that because 'Madison' the mermaid is smiling at one point I the clip and doesn't really look scary/sad , the music doesn't really fit the scene . However, this is my own made example video of how music can change your mood and feelings towards a film.
