Sound Influences


Opening sequence (panning shots of London)

For the start of our opening sequence, we want to have some typical Film Noir, 1940's style Jazz music, similar to the style of the Ella Fitzgerald who is known as the 'Queen of Jazz'. One of our main influences for this part of the sequence is the soundtrack from LA Noire, which is written by Stephen Coates. LA Noire is a video game based in 1940's Los Angeles and uses Jazz music throughout, which perfectly fits with the storyline. This part of the film is a bit more glamorous and high tempo in comparison to the rest of the opening and the Jazz music will certainly show this. We want to show this sudden cut from classic film noir jazz music to more ominous gloomy music, and the locations will help define this without it looking too out of the blue.
