Song 2
Hunting, creepy, mysterious, sends chills down your spine,

Morose - Very, very sad
Sombre - Neutral sad

Tempo- the speed 'how fast'

slow - melancholy, sadder, less energy

Cords
Major - happy, uplifting
Minor - sad, sinister

Dynamics - Volume 'how loud'
Quite - Draws your attention and makes you focus
Louder - Energy/attention
Starts quite/gets louder - Builds intensity

1  Miss Spink & Miss Forcible
Loud, fast upbeat, minor cords,

2  Coralines Dispair
Slow, minor cords starts, quite and get louder and faster, sombre,

3   The Beginning
Really slow slightly faster gets faster, minor cords, starts really quite then gets a bit louder, morose

4   Garden Scene
Gets faster and louder as it goes, minor cord, builds intensity

The beginning
Doll, lullaby, made up words suggest what? Little kids

In the opening scene music is used effectively to create a hunting atmosphere. For example, tempo, cords and dynamic's make it feel like a creepy lullaby. The tempo starts slow but gets faster building intensity. It is in the minor key which makes it feel sad. This makes the audience think the film will be mysterious, scary and creepy.
