Looking At Sound

We've now touched upon the aspect of sound. We know that there is two types of sound that can be used when adding them into a film piece. One of them is known as diagetic sound. This is basically the natural sound that is heard in normal life, and what the viewer is expected to hear within the film piece. Examples of this would be dialogue within a scene or footsteps of a character walking etc. The other type is non-diagetic sound which is the opposite definition to the first; this is the type of sound that we wouldn't hear in real life and that has been added over the film piece. Examples of this would be the most common form of diagetic sound - music. This is usually used to help create meaning and emotions within the scene so that the viewer will grasp upon them and understand what is genre is trying to be created. On my first try with sound, I've added sound effects using some from this website: http://freesound.org/
