In the garden scene, music is effectively used to create mood, energy, and anticipation. This is demonstrated by the use of tempo, chords, and dynamics in the music as Coraline enters the garden. The tempo was fast to create a feeling of energy. Although it has lots of energy, the music is in a minor key to foreshadow that things aren't quite right in the other world. It starts with quiet dynamics and gets louder to build anticipation. This makes the audience understand that something will go wrong later but for now, Coraline is enjoying the other world. The director did this to show that the other garden is a lively and energetic place, unlike the real world.
