Alright guys,I'm in my schools TV class (you learn the basics of how to work tech in the studio,you learn the elements of good cinematography,etc,etc),and me and my group just got done filming a (very) short film,which as of right now is about 1:50 (the final scene will probably bring it up to 2:30...luckily it moves slow enough so it seems longer).Now it's a silent film (no dialogue),so we need to tell the story through visuals and sound.But here's the thing:we don't know any good instrumentals to fill the silence with.

The film's plot is basically this:a kid is in class when he has to spontaneously take a piss.He runs out of the room only to a:find the bathroom doors locked and b:people getting in his way by stopping him in the hallway,blah blah blah.It ends *spoilers* with the kid pissing himself after he trips right in front of the final (unlocked) bathroom.

This is clearly a comedy,and we need some help with some **instrumental** music.Funny or goofy is OK,but something more intense would be better for building up suspense.Length doesn't matter much,we'll probably only use certain bits at certain times.So how about it all you (very kind and helpful :D ) film snobs out there,can you help an amateur film maker out?

My suggestion would be the track from "Jaws." People know it, it has great tension and it would be a funny build-up to a climatic whizz gone wrong in place of a shark attack.

I'm a music snob, not a film snob, but I hope that doesn't diminish my qualifications too much.

I'd say this could work quite well:

Not the beginning, but later on there are bits that could work, perhaps.

I like this thread :)

How about these:







EDIT: or if you want to go really dramatic:

A song that tells a story of ultimate struggle and ends in ultimate failure despite all that was put in to get there?

If you're not talking about Dave Chappelle, then maybe you should try this song on for size:
