Soundscapes



My Notes - Samuel Bamfo

Soundscape - Ambient sound that we can hear in a scape, for example: birds, clock ticking, e.c.t

Clapperboard - Is a device that is used in both film making and production. It is used to assist the synchronizing of sound and picture. It marks a point in the scene that can easily be identified in editing so that both the sound and picture can be cleverly put together to form synchronous sound.



Dubbed Sound - sound that is added later, over the top of the picture

Foley Artists - Person that creates and adds background sounds and noises later on in the editing. This allows sound to remain clear and avoid background interruptions.

Contrapuntal Sound - Sound that doesn't match the action/scene

Wild Track - Ambient Background noise that you would expect to hear, for example, wildlife.

Sound Bridge - connects or link to pieces of sound over two scenes.

Score - specifically composed music or sound for a film, unlike song which already exists and is chosen not created specifically.

  1. Extension task: Can you analyse the sound used in a title sequence? You could explore one that we have used in class or one of your own choices.

    Consider:
    What sound techniques have they used?
    What is the intended effect on the audience?
    Does it conform to or challenge the conventions?
    What is the relationship between sound and visuals?
    How does the choice of sound impact on the Institution, characters, genre etc?

    These questions should be considered, NOT used as headings.
