SOUND EDITS

https://youtu.be/cjWXO0noea4

          The first sound in our video was under the "contrast" master edit. This is an example of a non-diegetic sound. For the bird flying, we played the upbeat and suspenseful theme from Mission Impossible. For me sitting on the ground, we played Simon and Garfunkel's melancholy "The Sound of Silence". This represents the contrast between the bird flying freely in the air and me sitting bored on the ground.
          The second sound in our video was under the "symbolism" master edit. This is an example of music. Over the video of the American flag in nations square, we put the star spangled banner. When we zoomed out from the map of the United States, we just edited the music to sound more intense, and much louder. It is the same music, just altered, which represents the relationship in the two scenes, and the symbolism.
          The third sound was under the "simultaneity" master edit. This is an example of direct sound. The sound was not altered, there was no post synchronization dubbing and no non-diegetic sound. All of the sounds such as the quiet murmur from insider the classroom, and the loud buzz of the courtyard at lunch were left with the sounds that there were when it was recorded.
          The fourth sound was under the "parallelism" master edit. This is an example of synchronous sound. We played a song called "How You Feel" and chose the part that transitions from one rapper to another. When Kelly turns around one rapper says "Danny, how you feel?" and when I turn around the other rapper says, "I feel great". This is a representation of the change in scene/character, but a similar situation, which is why we kept the same song, just with different rappers conversing. This represents synchronous sound because it matches with our movements and the transition well.
          The fifth sound was under the "Leitmotif" master edit. This is an example of post synchronization dubbing. In the scene of my lizard standing there, we added the sound of crickets over it to emphasize the quiet thinking of the lizard. For the video of Kelly hitting and kicking the Trojan, we recorded the sound of us hitting metal hand rails in the school it make it sound like Kelly hitting the Trojan statue. There wasn't much sound coming from Kelly actually hitting it, which is why we hit the metal poles and added this over after to emphasize the sound it should be making to create the effect more.
