As music is one of the most important conventions of a film, I began looking for non- diegetic sound that would give a suspense or tense feeling and fit perfectly into the opening of our thriller.
To do this I started searching royalty free music on the internet. One of the websites I went to is http://www.freeplaymusic.com/. This site gives you a list of the type of music you would like to use, which you can also preview and download.
Another site I went on to was www.soundsnap.com . Apparently with this site you need to register/sign up, to get free downloads a month.
Instead, to get the sounds I used the sound recorder on my computer and recorded them off, making sure the quality came out good, which it did.
Another piece of non - diegetic sound that we possibly wanted to use was the heart monitor to flatline sound, since one of the main characters in the opening is a surgeon.
To do this I downloaded various heart monitor and flatline sounds from youtube and recorded some from sites like www.freesound.org and edited them so they would be as long.
