Sound Analysis; Romeo&Juliet Montage

One of our tasks was to watch a montage of Romeo&Juliet scenes and write down how the soundtrack for the video made us feel.

The song 'Jeff Buckley - We all fall in love sometimes', made me feel quite emotional about the scenes. It is slow paced which builds tension throughout the montage. The lyrics have meanings to the story line, this is called 'synchronous'. The song makes us think about the forbidden love between Romeo & Juliet and makes us sympathise towards the couple. 

Our next task was to find our own song that would create a different kind of mood for the montage. The song we chose was 'Sugar by Maroon 5'. This is because it made us feel a lot more happier, due to the more upbeat and fast paced tempo about their forbidden love and made us think of the positives between Romeo & Juliet although there weren't many. The song was still synchronous as the lyrics still linked in with the story line.
