Music choice:
We decided that as our documentary is about attraction and love, so we should use a piece of music that is very moving and lyrically relates to our piece. After looking on many different websites including www.youtube.com and www.itunes.com we found a piece of music which we believe to be appropriate for our documentary. As the lyrics relate to attraction and relationships ‘Let’s get together, baby’ ‘wanna hold you, get to know you’ we believe this would flow well with the subject of attraction. As the music is not in the charts or well known we believed that the song could be unique to our documentary as no other documentary has used this piece. The fact that the song is exciting, modern and upbeat means it suited our piece bringing it to life whilst also making it exciting and interesting. The music is also very loud, and memorable, making people want to watch it.
