Analysing an extract from a TV drama

In lesson, we analysed the sound from an extract from a TV drama. We then had to link it to sexuality. These are my notes...

I have learnt that Ambient sound is background sound and can be split into two:
-Foley
-Natural

Foley sound is sound that is artificial and put in for effect, and Natural sound is real sound that is captured within the scene.

I also learnt that parallel sound is sound that fits the mood or current action and contrapuntal sound is sound that contrasts with the mood or action.

This lesson has improved my knowledge on sound and how it effects the viewer. Not only will this help me in the exam, but it will also help with making my thriller opening sequence.
