Sound added to film
I added all the sounds and edited the film. For all the music and sound effects, I used a royalty-free music website called Pixabay.com. I mainly used soundtrack and non-dietetic sounds to add suspense to the film. Having no background music made the scenes seem awkward, with no suspenseful aspect to them. The ambience alone in the house which I filmed in was not enough to drive the thriller and drama aspect to the film. Hence, I decided to mainly use non-diegetic sounds. The one song I decided to use that is not from a Royalty-free website is the song Prison Walls by Christian Vasslebring. It is from a horror video game called Little Nightmares. This song adds the perfect amount of subtle, unnerving ambience to the film that it needed.

The back-and-forth camera angles between the young woman and the car driving down the road add tension to the situation. Then a POV shot of the inside of the car shows the car and the young woman falling down the side of the mountain. The shaky camera movement combined with the POV shot adds an ample amount of intensity and action to the scene as well as it adds anxiety to the young woman's situation. Toward the middle of the movie, there is a scene using a Two-shot camera angle, showing the two main characters, Ray and Emma in a helicopter.
