Research On Use Of Sound

Direct Sound is live sound that will produce a more authentic atmosphere. Like the sound i will be using of someone heavy breaking while running in my thriller.

Studio Sound is sound which is recorded in a studio, this way you don't get any unwanted background noises. I wont be using a lot of this as i want my production to feel more authentic.

Selective Sound is when you remove the sound you don't want and keep the sounds you do, and to make the sounds you keep more significant. I will be lowering sound then placing background music over the top to dramatises the event.

Sound Perspective is the impression of distance in the sound for example if some on is in the background of the shot speaking, there voice shouldn't be really loud. There isn't any dialogue in mine but i might make the sound lower as they run away.

A Sound Bridge is using sound to link two scenes together over a cut. Most of my shot changes will have music over them just to smooth it out.

Dubbed Dialogue is pre recording voices in a studio and then actors match it while on camera. This will look amature in my thriller opening sequence so i wont be using it even if the was dialogue e in my production which there isn't.

Wildtrack is sound that is recorded separately from the shot. For example a voice over. I may add a heart beat in but that is all i can think of using this in my production apart from the background music.

Parallel Sound is sound which is caused by an event on screen and it matches it. This wont be relevant to my thriller production.

Commentary/Narration a voice which is added on after editing. it can be used to introduce a part of a programme, to add extra  information, or link parts of the programme or to interpret the video for the audience. A change in tone can change how the audience react to the commentary. This isn't really necessary in a opening sequence unless you are looking at a handheld recording film where the camera is in there hands which it isn't in mine, or if someone is re looking events which again it isn't in mine.

Sound Effects is any sound that isn't synchronised dialogue, narration or music. It can make the illusion more of a reality for example if the scene is in the city, i could add in the sound of traffic. I will probably add a heartbeat over the black screen when they fall.

Music is used to help establish a sense of the pace of the scene. It can be used to show what mood the character is in and also to try and give an emotion to the audience. It will increase and make it more dramatic, and can also link shots together. It is normally not intended to be noticed. I will be putting music in mine to buid up the tempo/suspense

Silence is when there is no sound to the particular scene, it can create tension between the audience and the character and can also make the audience feel like they are not part of reality.I will be doing this at the end when the sounds just cuts out on a empty black background the words will pop up in silence.
