Sound Termonology:
-Sound has the power to create certain moods, to create character and signal events. It can also manipulate an audience to feel a certain emotion.
-There are three essential elements used to create sound: The human voice/ dialogue, sounds effects and music. All of these features help to create verisimilitude (realism) within a television drama.
- Diegesis: The world of the T.V programme we can see on screne that character's live in.
There are two main types of sound in T.V drama:
- Diagetic: diagetic sounds is natural sounds for example footsteps, talking, a radio being played- all things that we can hear on a daily basis for ourselves.
- Non-diagetic: This takes place outside of the diegesis and helps to provide an appropriate tone or mood to the drama.
Foley sound: Is the reproduction of everyday sounds for use in filmmaking. For example, squeeking doors and breaking glass- that are considered to be diagetic sounds, however the viewers are unaware that the sound has been added in as it is expected due to the verisimilitude of the drama.
Dialogue- mode of address/ voice overs: This is a first person narration which is used as a narrative device to explain the plot. This may also reveal vital information about the narrative which the other characters are unaware of, which creates suspense for the viewers.
Direct Address: When a character directly address the audience- which is rare in T.V dramas as they are designed to be realistic.
The importance of music in T.V dramas: Music is used to create atmosphere and emotion and help the audience feel what the character's are feeling.
Incidental Music: This is non-diagetic music which is used to add emotion to the drama. Helps you identify witht the narrative or characters.
Dissonant music: Music that indicates a potential menace or disaster which informs the audience that something bad is about to occur.
Incidental music may also be associated with different characters or narratives that are reference to specific things e.g James Bond.
Parralel Sounds: Sounds that we expect to hear in a drama, for example up beat and fast paced in action scenes.
Contrapuntal Sounds: Sounds that we dont expect to hear to add effect, e.g classical music over a fight scene.
Stings: A brief crescendo stab of music to enhance the drama of the current situation.
Ambient sounds: A diagetic/ natural sound that is used to create verisimilitude within the diegesis.
