For the sound used in our film opening, we have planned for there to be non-diegetic music that turns to diegetic once the farmer playing guitar is shown. This means that the music would have to incorporate an acoustic guitar and fit to our genre of rural comedy. The video above shows some music we have considered having in our film opening.
Song #1
Whilst this music does involve an acoustic guitar, the tempo and feel of the piece does not quite fit the tone we want for our opening. Preferably the music would have to be more up-beat and start out with a fade in order to be suitable.
Song #2
This song also incorporates an acoustic guitar and starts out with slow strums- however, the song continues at this slow tempo which does not suit the tone we would like. Towards the end of the twenty second clip in which the music is heard a beat starts- this is also a disadvantage for this song as it would be better off if the song included only an acoustic guitar.
Song #3
Out of the three songs considered, this is perhaps the most suitable. On the other hand, it is as not as upbeat as would be liked and does not quite have an 'urban' feel that is most suited to our film opening. Whilst the strumming is good, it would be better if it could start out slow and then speed up.
Overall, none of these songs seem suitable enough for the final chosen one for our film opening, but by considering these ones (and others) we have been able to consider in more detail what kind of music we would like.
