We decided to add sound effects to some of the scenes in order to create a sense of realism. We did this by MP3 clips from youtube of birds singing and footsteps. This was added along side the non-diegetic music. We decided that we would also add these sounds to the flashbacks scenes in order to reflect that fact that these memories are vivid and clear in the mind of our main character. For example, in the scene in which the girls are looking into fish the pond, we added sound effects of swirling water and singing birds. We also included the diegetic sound of the girls laughing that we took whilst filming. However for this particular scene, I recorded an audio clip of my hand swirling in a sink filled with water to go along side with the movements of our actor's hand, as I believed that this would enforce the sense of realism.
We also added a heart beat sound effect, gradually building in pace, over the top of the fast editing sequence towards the end of the film. This was done to create a sense of building intensity, and to refer back to the fact that these events are taking place in the mind of our main character.
