The different sounds and music connotes different atmospheres which allows the audience to connect with the movie more deeply and emotionally. The music is very important to create that certain atmosphere, the music in horror movies makes the movie be different, original and powerful. Therefore our media product needs an effective but powerful non diegetic music soundtrack to connect with the audience as the soundtrack will create an unforgettable atmosphere which will make the movie being even more enjoyable and breath-taking.
Music also helps to highlight specific parts and fragments of a movie to make the scene stand out and be different from the others. Even if music started before something appeared on screen, we can assume what it will be this also helps to connect with the audience engaging them in the movie.
The feel of fear or scare are the result of well combined pictures and music, strong emotions are the expectation of every director.
Examples
Jaws has an iconic soundtrack using string and wind instruments to allow the tone and speed to gradually increase creating an intense atmosphere.
Overall I understand I need an iconic soundtrack to engage the audience to relate to the images we have filmed to create the tense atmosphere in order to reveal the fear factor to the audience.
