     Honestly, my group and I have not done much this past week because of spring break. However I have compiled a playlist of songs on Spotify that have potential in our film opening. Less than half of the songs have lyrics, which serves a purpose. Our group agrees that lyrics take away from the tension, and a suspenseful beat is far more effective in creating the mood of a scene. There is rarely lyrics in the songs in films, apart from the trailer.

     According to my research a suspenseful beat is usually made by a drum. However, there are several other beats that allude to a mysterious tone along with other instruments. I have attached the link to the playlist to this blog post, however I know I need permission to use the songs if my group decides to.

April 13 2018 Well, the end has come! Attached is my CCR link which summarizes my project and the thought process going into it. I hope it gives a better idea at the reasoning behind each decision and explains the backstory of the film opening. Thank you to my group members- Jonathan Galante, Jacob Katz, and Sebastian Vargas for helping create a great project. Enjoy!!!! Rachel's CCR
March 29 2018      Today I was experimenting with iMovie and discovered a lot of options I didn't know existed. For example, my group and I can upload a voice memo to our film opening if we don't like any of the songs from the Spotify playlist. I found a website that has tons of tricks and hints on how to spruce up a project, so I am going to spend more time browsing through it before we finish editing. https://www.lifehack.org/articles/technology/20-useful-imovie-tricks-beef-your-imovie-skills.html
