  Non diegetic -  Eerie background music as Coraline moves through the tunnel. The music helps create a mysterious, dreamlike atmosphere and makes the journey feel magical but slightly unsettling. It creates anticipation because the audience is curious about where the tunnel leads and what Coraline will discover.  Diegetic -  The sound of the mice in Coraline’s room and her walking down the stairs are all examples of sound that Coraline herself can hear.

I think my acting was also good  as i tried to replicate their accents and expressions from the original. I planned the scene well before filming, which made the filming process easier. The backing track worked well and helped make the scene more similar to the original.
