Sound analysis

 1) 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:

• Diegetic and non-diegetic sound
• Parallel and contrapuntal sound
• Sound bridges

Remember to discuss/analyse all the different types of sound present in the clip:

• Music
• Dialogue
• Voiceover
• Sound effects

You also need to highlight or put in bold any use of media language.

This is a scene from the movie "Perks of being a Wallflower" known as the "tunnel scene". The use of the diegetic sound is very parallel towards the scene. The setting of the scene and the actions of the characters present to the audience a very calming sense and feeling; the music adds to it and creates a stronger feeling towards what is happening in the narrative. The dialogue of the characters show excitement and calmness in them. The girl being intrigued to know the song and wanting to stand at the back of the car to have the wind blow through her hair as it plays creates a surreal experience for the audience soothes the atmosphere especially since the song, "Heroes", is art rock which is typically soothing and relaxing to listen to.
