Sound analysis

 1) Find a film clip on YouTube that uses sound in an interesting way. Analyse the use of sound, making sure you use the key language we have learned about sound in film:

Video: https://youtu.be/4d-EYIZAqXc?is=YY-mA-dkZFHAiDqb

  • Diegetic and non-diegetic sound- Diegetic sound is present in the clip. Sounds like pool water splashing, leafs rustling, waves, houses being broken, birds chirping, people screaming and pages being moved in a book are examples of Diegetic sound. However, there aren’t any non-diegetic sounds heard in the scene.
  • Parallel and contrapuntal sound- There is only parallel sounds being played in the clip.
  • Sound bridges- You can hear water as the screen is black which shows the disaster has just hit.
Remember to discuss/analyse all the different types of sound present in the clip:
  • Music- No music is played in the clip
  • Dialogue- People screaming and the father calling out for his son.
  • Voiceover- No voiceover in the clip
  • Sound effects- Waves and trees/leaves rustling are examples of sound effects in the clip.
