Contemporary Folk Music?

  A few days ago, I met up with Lucie to finish up editing our shots and begin the search for the perfect song that fit with our opening. While editing we ran into a couple of problems... the first was that in one of the scenes, our actor Diego (the homeless man) had his legs dangling from the train while sitting on it, but when continuing onto the next scene his legs heisted and crossed onto the platform of the train. We had a couple of other shots that we could replace it with, but this was our best and favorite shot so we decided to leave this minor error in order to include our best take.      Another problem was our homemade credits scene. While filming this continuous scene of garbage on the train tracks, the camera was taped on a metal bar which covered the screen on the camera. Because of this, I couldn't really see what I was filming so I did my best to make sure all of the credits could be seen on the cans and garbage.  While blindly filming, I was also stepping over train tracks and gravel which caused the camera to shake quite a bit even though our camera was somewhat stabilized with the metal bar. With these factors involved, this made our credits scene shaking and hard to read. We (sort of) fixed this issue by slowing down the footage on IMovie to create a more stable and visually appealing scene. 

    After resolving these issues, Lucie and I move on to looking for a song to play during our credits scene. We looked on multiple royalty free music sites, before finding the perfect website that didn't require an account and also had numerous song options. We wanted a song that wasn't too serious, but also not a joyful, upbeat song. After around an hour of searching and arguing over which song we should use, Lucie and I finally found a song/ genre we agreed on... contemporary folk.
