Day 5:
Today we were ready to add the music to the film. We had slow quiet music in the beginning, then blended in the louder, spookier music towards the end at the point when the reflection starts to come out of the mirror. We did this to build up anticipation and create suspense, exploiting the dramatic irony that the audience would be waiting for something to happen.
We also added the the titles to the film, making them the appropriate size, font and graphological effect appropriate to the mood of tension and terror characteristic of our genre. We also made up the other character names, which were the names of famous actors/actresses to add another level of intertextuality.
