After composing the track, I used Audacity to add effects to the music. These effects included softening the music during the transition, to add to the impact and distinction to the happy and war parts, separately. For the second half, the "war part", I added reverb to the track. Reverb is used to give the sound depth and create the effect of it being in a room, and reverberating off of the walls. I thought reverb would be appropriate, as when it is revealed that it is actually war, the video shows many more red and blue people. It added vastness to the sound in its depth.
