Here shows that the piece of music which is included within my short film is lisenced by the creator of each element within the song via a text to allow me to use his music. (Gary Hellman- Leave tonight)

Purpose of music in film

Mr Nobody- Choice scene

Purpose

Music plays an important part in the film industry to bring an extra element of drama to a scene so that the audience have an emotional effect depending on the mood on the particular music/scene given. In concert music the music itself shows an emotion impact on an audience. Although music alone can cause such a dramatic impact, adding this to film exaggerates the idea of a dramatic effect on the audience and emphasises meaning to the specific scene being watched.

Elements

The music within this clip contains just a piano playing, this makes the music very independent with very few high pitched and low chords which makes it simple. The music is slow and dramatic, which almost doesn't fit the scene but because it doesn't fit the scene, elements are picked out by the audience so that emotionally, it works well but visually it does not. The motion of the picture also slows to fit the music almost as if the film has slowed down for the music so rather than the music being in the background, the music is why the scene is so much of an impact.

Meaning

The music within this scene is so peaceful and simple which almost relates to the title of the film 'Mr Nobody' It shows such drama just by one piece of piano which clearly shows a true understanding of a choice being made but also when making a choice, the average being calms themselves and this piece of music contributes to this. The music also graduates from quiet at the beginning and as soon as the mother is seen to shout, a high pitched note on the piano is played which exaggerates the scene so the audience then know that se is screaming, this emotionally impacts the audience so they can relate to this.
