For our soundtrack we looked at many different films that featured aliens and unhinged protagonists. Films like a beautiful mind and silence of the lambs had very orchestral soundtracks featuring intense string/brass sections to convey that the main character has lost his mind.
However we felt this wasn't the right type of soundtrack for our film. Instead we looked at more synth based soundtracks which fit well with our sci fi theme. We looked at the knick which features synthesiser and electrical instruments heavily and also looked at scores from John Carpenter films as he was an early pioneer of the synth sound in the 80s.
Overall we decided to pursue a synth based soundtrack to both capture the sci fi theme aswell as show someone who is mentally unstable. We have access to garageband so the amount of electrical instrument software available within the program will be helpful when constructing the soundtrack.
