I considered a voiceover in our film, however I decided it may ruin what we have already created. The enigma would suffer and our track would have to be re-edited to fit around the voice over. At the moment the use of non diegetic music works in our favour to create suspense and to let the viewer know something is about to happen. A voice over would take that away and they could become too concentrated on the conversation happening other then where the girl is walking.
I originally wanted a voiceover to help introduce the girl and show her character but that almost takes away the 'crime' effect within the film and would make it more about the girl.
This is conventional as it is a typical technique used in films such as 'Sket', 'Adulthood', 'Kidulthood' and 'Attack the block'. Music creates a much more powerful effect then I had originally imagined it could have. As it speeds up we know what we have been waiting to see what is about to happen and this is one of the reasons I do not now want to use a voiceover.
