Audio is very important in film. Whether it's sound effects or background music, it creates a better experience for the audience by establishing atmosphere, conveying emotions, and making the film look more realistic. Today I will be discussing the audio in our film opening from foley to non diegetic sound.
Foley
Foley is a technique used to create sound effects after filming to make the audio better in movies, TV shows, and other media. In our project, we will record some foley sound to improve the audio quality. Some of the foley sounds that we will record include:
- Chalk
- Footsteps
- Pencil
- Door
- Wind
- Crumbling paper and throwing it in the trash
Diegetic sounds are any sounds that come from within the film. For example, dialogues, noises from objects, or music playing in the scene. In our film opening, the diegetic sounds will include our foley sounds and the police siren that will be added in the editing process.
Non-diegetic sounds
Non-diegetic sound is audio that comes from outside the film's world and isn't heard by the characters. Examples include voice over narration and background music. In our project, the non-diegetic sound would be the background music in the cross cutting scene. For that scene we had two potential songs that we wanted to use: The first song is These Boots Are Made For Walkin' by Nancy Sinatra. We contacted Nancy, but unfortunately, we got no response... The second song that we had in mind is La petite fille de la mer by Vangelis, but sadly the artist passed away on May 17, 2022. Unfortunately, those two options are not available for us to use in our project, so my group and I collectively decided to research copyright free music and use that instead.
