Choosing the right sound
In the beginning scene the artists phone goes off and the ringtone plays. Realistically it wouldn't be extremely loud as its playing off a phone and so we tried to record it as it would be very difficult to match up the sound from two different scenes perfectly. In the first 3 images above we recorded the sound at a fixed point and that was ok because the sound was constant, however it didn't come across as though someone was moving towards the sound as it didn't get louder.
This brings us to the last 3 pictures where the sound was recorded from across the room and as the mic got closer the sound got louder. This didn't work as well as we thought it would as it was barely audible from far away but as it got closer it was audible.
In the end I we decided to use the first sound clip as the overall sound was better. To achieve the desired affect of someone moving towards a ringing phone we will decrease and increase the sound accordingly.
