Script

0:00 – 2:41 The start of eerie music is played in the background and all the way throughout the opening.

0:12 – 0:24 Voice of man: Charles Manson 36 chose a house at random (background noise of peoples commotion throughout his dialogue)tied up the family at gunpoint then ordered his followers to go inside and commit ritual slaughter

0:37 - Noise of people’s commotion again

0:40 – 0:47 Women’s singing overlaps the sound of people’s commotions

0:42 The sound of camera shutter, a photo is being taken

0:51 – 1:00 The voice of Charles Manson is heard: When I stand on the mountain and I say DO IT it gets done and if it don’t get done then I’ll move on it and that’s the last thing in the world you want me to do

1:02 – 1:11 Maybe I should of killed 4 - 500 people then I would of felt better then I would of felt like I really offered society something

1:15- 1:20 more commotion is heard but is overlapped by another person’s dialogue

1:17 - 1:24 a man’s dialogue (which is hard to understand what he is saying) A man’s voice: If I started murdering people they’d be none of it left.

1:25 – 1:30 The man said to of been the inspiration or the leader of the cult Charles Manson

1:31 – 1:40 Now you do what I say you know if I wanted to kill somebody id take this stick and beat you to death and I wouldn’t feel a thing

As the music becomes more dramatic so does the commotion in the background

1:41 - 2:00 The commotion

2:01 – 2:04 They call themselves the family

The main dialogue throughout our opening is not our own. We researched news reports and interviews about and with Charles Manson, then watched them all to decide which clips of sound we thought would be most suitable and give the bigger impact. The source we used to research this was youtube, It was our source because there were a variety of clips to be watched and was it also an easy access to view and download. We had to decide very carfully on what clips would represent our storyline and what would not sound out of

context. We deceided to include all the dialogue from other sources because it was more suitable, if we had of used our own/another voice I felt that it would of sounded out of place and not realistic enough. On the other hand, it may have been a good idea to include the main characters voice, possibly telling her story or giving us an insight on where this narrative was going. The backgournd music we used was hard to find. We wanted to find a track that wasn’t cheesy, typical scary music, so I typed in on youtube ‘dramatic thirlling music’ and this came up. When I listened, I felt it was perfect for our film! So I dsownloaded it and we edited the track into our film and we loved it. Overall, I am very happy with our sound and it is really suited with our film.
