New Media: Sound and Cinema

What can I say... Personally, I plan to spend this glorious coming weekend watching all of my favorite movies in an attempt to not only find great examples for class on Wednesday, but also in an attempt to forget all the horror clips we watched this week. Just kidding! But, I do have to admit I'm really not a fan of horror films, I tend to spend half the movie covering my eyes. I'm serious, don't laugh at me. I will admit that the clips chosen this week were great examples of how sound gives added value to the film clips we've watched. Anyway I'm excited to learn even more about the interaction between sound and cinema and I think that this will be a really interesting class this semester. I really don't know what else to say so I guess I'll see you all Wednesday.

One of the next clips/movies we'll be watching is a comedy, don't worry! I think that Michel Chion is a big horror fan - many of his examples come from those films, much to my chagrin.

Im not a big horror fan either! But its almost "scary" how much work and creativity goes into the sound ; ) i guess i can dig that.
