Contextual Study of Film: Script Writing - Day 2 (playing with sounds and images)

[changeling67]

Those not familiar with Edgar Allen Poe's The Tell Tale Heart can find the story HERE

I was thinking of ways I could build up suspense and I figured that clocks and heart beats seem to be linked here.  So, under the cut, I have one Grandfather clock sound and the sound of a beating heart.  When synchronised, I think that both elements could bring suspense to the story.

LOL - yes, you can guarantee that it will be surreal :-)

Wheeee... I've got them going both together... weird and creepy and... certainly not sleepmaking.

I used to love my Grandfather Clock that tictoc'd so quietly downstairs... this one is a bit tinny and would drive me bonkers...

But to have the heart AND the tictoc.... wwwwoooooooo

My thought is that sometimes it will be only be the clock, other times the heartbeat - sometimes both. The whole script will be about 10 minutes. Try the clock and the music Ghost processional(Kevin MacLeod) together. I am thinking about how things fade in and out :-)
