We need to be aware of how we use sound in our show. Dead silence and lack of background noise can be as distracting as too much sound.
Musical moments in our show:
1. Our major theme song, which would occur at the beginning of each episode
2. Mini themes, which occur when certain actions happen, e.g. traveling in the tower always occurs with the same/similar music
3. Specific musical styles appropriate for each painting world we visit. Techno for futurism?
In addition to music, we can also incorporate ambient background noise.
Yo Gabba Gabba has parts with no background sound except for occasional sound effects, and I think the only reason it works is that they follow it with a sing-along kind of song.... Background sound for us is a MUST. Perhaps an option to supplement our self-made music is looking into public domain music that we can borrow....?
