Our example soundtrack is a mediumly tempoed in order to convey a dramatic feel. We have incorporated strings, as through our research of thriller films' soundtracks, we have observed that it is somewhat of a convention. Strings are a feminine group of instruments and excel in portraying a romantic, an atmospheric feel.
Specifically instrumented percussion is used - consisting of the 'shaker' and 'chimes'. We wanted to use soft percussion, as it can easily become overpower, and overshadow the melodic elements.
The acoustic guitar is used both for rhythmical accompaniment, as well as melody. This choice of instrumentation gives the composition a 'folkish' vibe, which is used to gain authenticity.
