In our first session we covered what different sounds there are in films.
Below is a list of some of them.
- Synchronous sound - matches the visual imagery
- Diegetic - Visible on screen and heard by characters
- Non diegetic - Not visible on screen and can not be heard by characters eg - music
- Voice over - This is when there is a piece of narration but itdoes not match the image,
- Symbolic sound - When a sound carries meaning in itself. Eg : sound from Jaws that appears right before the shark attacks. This sound has its own meaning and therefore tells the viewers that soemthing bad is about to happen.
- Direct sound
- Looping/dubbing -
- Actual sound
- Bridge - This is a type of sound editing, when one sound carries over from one clip to the next.
- Wild sound
- Optical sound
- Sound motif
- Soundtrack
'The Jazz Singer' 1980, directed by Richard Fleischer and Sidney J. Furie - First feature film with using live sound / dialogue
