I will use this research and take it with me into making the sound track for my sequence. For example, weighing up all the above factors, I will use a mixture of diagetic and non-diagetic sounds to create suspense. I will mainly use diagetic sound so that anticipation will be created out of the lack of sound. And I've learnt that the sounds used have to match the mood.
