  Find a film clip on YouTube that uses sound in an interesting way. Analyse the use of sound, making sure you use the key language we have learned about sound in film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ARFyrM6gVs Diegetic and non-diegetic sound Parallel and contrapuntal sound Sound bridges Music Dialogue Voiceover Sound effects You also need to highlight or put in bold any use of media language. The opening scene of baby driver uses sound in an intresting way to show the audience how the protagonist experiences the world. Diegetic sound   is used through the car engine, tyres, traffic and sounds made by the characters. The Non-Diegetic sound of the song playing in the background creates an energetic atmosphere while the audience waits to see what will happen next.  the music is also parallel sound  because it matches the fast paced action making the scene feel intense also with the conventions of an action film. however contrapuntal sound  is also used bec...

1) Choose a 60 second piece of music - it can be a film score or a song, it is up to you. 2) Using editing software (we recommend using Adobe Premiere Pro so you get more confident using it) produce a one-minute montage of images and videos. Half the images need to be parallel to the music and half need to be contrapuntal . Think carefully about how you can best select images and videos to have a significant impact on the audience. For this task, you do not need to use original images or videos. 3) Upload the finished video to YouTube and embed it in your own blog with a brief description of what you've created. Note: due to videos occasionally being blocked on copyright grounds, please also save the exported video file (e.g. MP4) into your student folder on the M: Media Shared drive. 4) Present your video to the class next week, explaining the thinking behind your work.   I have created a video montage combining beautiful nature scenery, including forests flowers mountains and ...

Copy the images into your blog and answer the following questions for each image: Identify examples of high and low-key lighting. Say which depict top , back or under lighting . What effects are created by the lighting in each image?      Note: if the images don't display correctly in your blog then simply use the number of each image and answer the three questions for each. In this image there is low key lighting as most of the image is dark and you cant even see what is on the image on the bottom. there is also top lighting as on the top left of the screen there is a bright light we enables us to be able to see her face. this creates an eeriness in the image as  you can only see her and she seems scared. We see both low-key and highkey lighting. Low-key can be seen on the facial areas whereas the rest of him is highkey. There appears to be top and ...
