Sound lesson

Activity 2 – Diegetic Vs Non-Diegetic sounds

This scene is an example of Diegetic sounds, the dialogue on the television depicting the eruption of chaos and zombies is crucial to the plot, and by the characters hearing this we can see their reactions.

This scene utilises non-diegetic sound, we can hear upbeat music because the characters are throwing records at the zombies but the characters themselves cant hear this music, this is also an example of contrapuntive sound as it contrasts to what is in the scene emotionally.
