Sound Exercise and Evaluation



For this exercise we had to film a short sequence to show examples of different sounds used in film . the different sounds that we used were:
-Non Diagetic Sound
-Off Screen Sound
-On Screen Sound
-Parallel Sound
-Pleonastic Sound (Door Slam)
-Ambient Sound (Empty Room)

We used off screen sounds by Viktorija standing behind the camera for it not to be shown: "Well look who it is" This can make the viewer be mysterious about who this person can be as they can't see them. Afterwards we used Pleonastic sound. This was where the door slam occurred off screen, which can alarm the viewers and be more interested in the film.
However, when we filmed some off screen sounds, talking and footsteps can be heard from the outside. For the voiceover, we had to use a small voice recorder and move to a different and quieter destination, as the microphone was sound sensitive, it could easily pick up surrounding sounds.
this was quite a problem for us as every time we tried to film a new sound, we had to make sure there wasn't anybody walking outside to give the footsteps effect, so it wouldn't ruin the quality of the footage.
The best part of the whole exercise was filming the off screen sound, and the non diagetic sounds, as they turned out to be best quality.
