Music inspirations and ideas


The music inspiration in which i have looked are are these two songs, This is because I think that by the removal of a few of the lyrics from 'eye of the tiger' then this will give a good base line for the training scenes for the girls. This will give the atmosphere of inspiration for the characters as well as giving teh audience a new atmosphere in which they would associate the genre WAR with. This will also be apart of our goal which is to challenge the conventions of a typical war film.




In the wild, seeing the "eyes" of the tiger signifies death, because right before a tiger attacks, it turns its ears forward so that the spot on the back of each ear faces nearer its prey. The "eye spots" on the back of tigers' ears serve to confuse predators and reduce the risk of attack from behind. Hence, once someone sees these "eyes", the tiger is about to attack. So this can be related to our trailer because it is linked to death and the fear of being worthless and afraid.



Wilfred Owen's poem "Dulce Et Decorum Est" was written during his World War I experience. Owen was an officer in the British Army, and he wanted for all of the people back home to know what peoples sons and husbands were doing as well as what monstrosity it was causing. His poem explains how the British press and public comforted themselves with the fact that, terrible that is was, all the young men dying in the war were dying noble, heroic deaths as they were patriotic enough to die young and proud, dying for their country. Although the case was that there was obscene and terrible deaths, but Own wanted to throw the war right into the patriotic's noses just to visually illustrate how vile and inhumane the was really is. He explains within this poem that people will encourage you to fight for your country, but, in reality, it may simply be sentencing yourself to an early unnecessary death. The title of the poem means "Sweet and Fitting it is," and then the poem ends with the title that is, in fact, a lie.
