Rolling into big things

Today I can officially say at least some filming and direct sounds for the project have been found, so ultimately, today is a day to rejoice and hope for more productive days to come. I began researching on YouTube for some diegetic sounds we could use for the opening. This lead me down the hole of finding perfect audio for a record scratching, the perfect Mozart song, and I felt like adding some dogs barking to represent the outside environment and eeriness tot he area would do nothing but greatness for the project.
This record crackling adds to the effect that the killer is an old and demented person, who somehow pertains to this lavish and etiquette lifestyle by owning this old school vinyl player of a Mozart song.
This is followed by Mozart's Lacrimosa. This is a song that would generally be played inside somewhere heavenly, mostly a church in most Latin areas. This is a complete contrast to the actual events of murder forthcoming, but still add to the scary effect which we so desperately want. Likewise, the song also adds to the presence of introducing the character and his house in a godly manner, as if he had the ability to choose life or death.
Finally, I found these sound effects of the dog's barking. This outdoor sound effect truly is an auditory masterpiece. It sounds completely like some dogs barking in the far distance. We don't want them in frame, as it would just ruin the scence and the continuation of the killer owning a dog. By choosing this sound, you can tell you are in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night, and something is about to go down.
I also was able to take this video last night, along with many others of nearly the same image, as I see it could be the great addition which we need to make this movie intro visually nice (it is just raw footage for now), to introduce the house. Expect, some editing and film revision to the actual first few seconds of the actual movie.
