Diegetic vs non diegetic sound
diegetic sound: is any sound that the characters in the scene can hear
Non- diegetic sound: are sounds that the characters can’t hear but the audience can
diegetic – actors talking, dog barking, doors closing, tv
Non diegetic – music and sounds edited in for effect

In layman’s terms, sound editing is about collecting the sounds needed for a film. Sound mixing refers to what is done after they are collected. The sound editing category used to be known as sound effect editing, which is actually the more apt name.
Examples of sounds made by Foley artist
Fire
Prop ideas: cellophane, potato chip bag, steel wool
The idea here is to scrunch up the prop then release it.
Stack of Cash
Prop ideas: old deck of cards, or a cut-up paperback book.
This trick to this effect is using paper sources with softer, flexible textures.

this gives the scene a sense of claustrophobia as its leading Danny down the corridor.
makes the viewer feel as though they are following Danny through the corridors
Gives viewer a distorted view of reality as the human eye usually creates its own range of focus but Kubrick forces everything into focus
makes the audience feel trapped and distorted as the two are almost identical and dead center blocking the way through
