Opening Music

Within this lesson my group and I were trying to find a suitable song for the opening sequence. Using Youtube we searched in horror music although the music was too eery compared to what we are trying to convey in our opening. For example we are looking for a type of music which would be used in a thriller although when we typed in thriller in Youtube it came up with the famous Michael Jackson video. I then realised that I've heard a song which would be ideal for our theme. Blinded by the lights is a song by The Streets which is a garage based song which has a tempo that is quite slow and the lyrics also talk about taking drugs which in essence relates to Katie being in the club. However, due to The Streets being a well known group we are unable to use this song as that would be copyright and we would therefore lose marks. For this reason my group and I were extremely annoyed as after a long time of searching for a thee song we were adamant that this was the song we wanted to use. In addition to this we then came across the song In for the Kill by La Roux but once again we came across the same problem. Our aim now is to keep searching but not let it take over our planning on other important aspects of our filming.
