Soundtrack

The soundtrack that I selected to use as the background music is Clap Tap, from premium beats.com. I wanted a soundtrack that was upbeat and active, but not so much so that it would distract from the content of my filming. After considering a series of songs this was the one that I felt best suited my genre and would be the most engaging with the audience, as well as a good pace to edit to. Moreover there was a sense of building to this soundtrack, how it started off more subtle and then developed into a more powerful piece, which again would be an interesting element when applied to my editing and its change of pace throughout the documentary.

In addition to this at 0:33 there is a fade in the volume of the song, before it restarts again with a slightly faster pace and singers in the background. This fits perfectly with the sort of timing that I had considered my introduction to last, thus there will be a clear distinguished break between the start of my documentary, before the main body of it. Furthermore it was hard to find a song that was both engaging and active, but had a subtle and quiet enough beginning to suit the voice over that will be played over it during my introduction. Not only does Clap Tap allow for this during my introduction, but also then builds into a faster pace to suit the rest of the documentary.
