SOUND AND CINEMA

Wow, what a great class this is going to be! I’m just sitting here listening to the low hum of my computer, the clicking of my keyboard, and the soft squeaking of my computer chair, what great diagetic sounds! All that’s missing is the non diagetic sound of a murderer slowly opening a door down the hall! Ha, I can also hear the faint sound of the drunkards shuffling around outside my window three stories down and the slow whoosh of cars passing in the distance. These non diagetic sounds would be great for expanding this shot, there is so much to be heard everywhere! Translating the sounds of the world into a cinematic experience is truly exciting. I can't wait to learn more. I am also very interesting in creating or using sounds that would not match an image in reality, but can create profound and moving effects when synched with a visual image in cinema. I think it’s time to start looking for a clip for class on wed, I don’t like most horror movies, but I do like zombie movies. I think I’ll start with those, I can’t wait!
