Diegetic sound: Is any sound that the character or characters on screen can hear.
Non-diegetic sound: Any sound that audience can hear but the characters cannot.
Sound editor: collects the sound needed for the film, often recording using a boom pole. They can record sound of screen or make sound for the film.
Sound mixer: often post production, adjusting balancing and using EQ the sound. This is used to create a desired effect in the film, either by making the sound effects louder vs the dialogue which is quiet to make the scene seem busy and loud.
We used reverse shots in order to show the characters direct reaction to the dialogue. We began with two wide shots to help set the scene and introduce both characters. Using wide shots also helped to show levels of the characters.
For our insert shots we captured the message on the phone as it told the audience the crucial plot of our film which was that his dad had died. We wanted the shot after the insert of the phone to be a close up of his face so that we could capture his instant emotion and allow the audience to feel a sense of sympathy. These shots also help the audience to understand the fathers and son relationship through his response to the tragedy.
