Here I have made a podcast explaining how music was created and how we ran into a problem.
I was influenced from Psycho which had this sinister non - diegetic background music during the establishing shots which gave a creey feeling to the music.
Here is the music we are using:

SAMPLE SCENE Establishing Shots
...
...
Here are clips we are planning to use for our establishing shots. The ambient sound heard here will not be in the final cut as we will put some music over it instead.

What went well:
- Effective use of time
- Had 2 people to double check shots were good
- Had planning sheet so we knew exactly what to film
What went wrong:
- Didn't have prefered filming equipment
- Improvise with backup filming equipment

SLASHER CONVENTIONS: 3 Opening Shots
Halloween
...
...
0220-0242 (22 seconds)
An extreme long shot that tracks into the house to the front door where the next scene starts
Friday 13th
...
...
0000-0026 (26 seconds)
An extreme long shot aimed at the moon, the camera pans to the left to perfect darkness and then down too an extreme long shot of the campsite
Pyscho
...
...
0013 - 0105 (52 seconds)
Multiple extreme long shots over the city which pan and then crossfade between each other, each crossfade the camera gets closer and closer towards the window. It has a total of 5 shots until it reaches the window and zooms in then pans around the room setting the scene to what is about to follow.
All of these opening sequences share similar features, for example they all open with extreme long shots that establishes and sets the scene, they show the location, most opening shots in slasher films span about 20-25 seconds with the obvious exception of psycho which is 52 seconds.

Possible Influences
- Inspired by Psycho zooming into window
- Panning from both left and right to show the remote area
- Have soundtrack in background
