Favourite Video:

This was one of my favourite sequences in the way sound was used because the sound instantly set the scene to be a calming homely atmosphere also because a teenager was acting it out it gave the audience an idea that it was a teenage drama with a bit of romance. The type of music played a huge role because the music was slow piano sounds that is typically played in romantic teenage films. However, sound was used to its advantage towards the end when the plot was changing and the girl was going after the boy with a knife as it changed to upbeat tension building music that lets the audience know something bad is going to happen.

Least Favourite Video:

This sequence according to sound was my least favourite because i think through the whole sequence they only had one sound playing which bores the audience really quickly as they obviously know it is a horror film but there was no climax or a point that they were building up to, to grip the audience. Furthermore, eventually i think that the sound has points that are meant to have a something big happen like something jumps out but there is nothing this will detach the audience and make them switch off from the rest of the sequence as nothing exiting is happening to correspond with the exiting music.
