Sound

Film form

What you need to know

Diegetic and non-diegetic sound: dialogue, ambient sound, sound effects, Foley, voice-over and sound bridges.
Music: score and songs, motifs linked to characters, and music that sets mood or signals genre.
How sound develops character and narrative, raises themes and shapes our response, with examples from the set films.
Telling diegetic from non-diegetic sound where the line is blurred, as when a score becomes a song in a musical.
