Audio

 Audio 

     Hello again! Today I'm researching audio and what audio we can integrate in our two minute opening scene. Throughout our two minute opening, there will be eerie music, we haven't decided exactly which music we will use yet. There will also be the sound of one of the marbles sliding on the table, and then it being dropped into a jar. At the end, there will be a phone call, so we will hear the phone ring, the person on the other line saying there's an emergency, and Dr. Shabata answering. 

     Research on Audio 

   Background music can add so much depth to a scene, that nothing else can. Music can help convey the scene's emotion, like if its ban action scene, a fast-paced song would get the audience more entertained and feeling the emotion, or if its a sad scene, a sad song would make the scene sadder by having a melancholic beat and sad lyrics. Music can make any film and scene better. 

     2 Types of Music

   Diegetic 

Diegetic sound is sound that is a part of the scene, so like a dialogue or environmental sounds. They are a part of the scene and make sense to be in that particular scene, it's natural. One example of diegetic sound is, the character is running away from the cops, there are siren sounds, and footsteps, cars honking, him panting from running, cars stopping suddenly, people yelling, these are all sounds that would be in that scene. 

   Non-Diegetic  

Non-diegetic sound is sound that is not a part of the scene, so for example, background music. It's not a sound that would be heard in that scene, while it fits the scene, it wouldn't naturally be in that particular scene. One example of non-diegetic sound is, during a sad scene, a couple is fighting, there is background music to emphasize the sadness of the scene, that music wouldn't naturally be there, if this was in real life, there would be no music, while it fits with that particular scene, it is not a sound that would naturally be there.
