there are 4 main types of sound:
music
Music is a key sound code. The type of music in a text can convey a great deal of information about the mood/tone/atmosphere of the text.
•Tension can be established,
•Emotions communicated,
•Context set,
•End of sequence can be suggested.
sound effect
Music or sound that belongs ‘within the frame’ or can be considered to be a natural part of the narrative, is called diegetic music. The source of the sound is often, but not always, visible on screen.
When the sounds (usually music) is used without being part of the action, it is defined as non-diegetic
Silence
can also be used to create tension in the audience. It is important to consider the visual codes when commenting on the effect of silence.
•Building tension before entering a room,
•Building tension before answering a question,
Building tension before an explosionsilence
voice over
It is important to comment on the tone, volume and emotion of a voice-over/narration.
A commentary can be used to mediate the audience’s interpretation of the visuals, particularly if the tone is moderate, assured and reasoned. In films the voice-over is generally one of the major characters and is unheard by others and provides a counterpoint to the action.
a part of the sound in the clip which really represents sexuality is when the main woman is hovering her hand over the woman. the music is soft and is almost a loving song, showing passion and love towards the woman.
