Although we were aware that music would be important, we were surprised of how much it would influence the overall edit. Our first thought was to use something dramatic and strong. It didn't go well with the comedy when I put it in the opening scene. It felt weird since the music portrayed the characters non-serious actions as serious ones.
We then experimented with something silly for the sounds. Even worse, the music seemed forced, as if it were trying to tell to the audience how they should respond rather than allowing the action to speak for itself. For the clips we have, I still haven't found a good audio that I can say I enjoy. Locating the audio for this movie is truly very hard. This is made more difficult by the fact that a lot of the audio tracks that would be used in the movie's introduction are copyrighted. This has become very discouraging and appears to be a major challenge in the editing process. Positively, the edit is starting to take shape, and we will continue to work on it. The good thing is we have more time to work on it.
