Sound

After we done the music we decided to look at the sound techniques so that we could get the sound perfect in our opening scene. The two types of sound that we looked at were;

Diegetic Sound (Actual Sound)

• Dialogue.
• Sounds made by on-screen objects.
• Music that is represented as coming from instruments.
• Can be either on/off screen depending on the source of the sound.

Non-Diegetic Sound (Commentary Sound)

• Narrator's Commentary
• Sound effects that are added in for dramatic effect
• Mood Music such as in Skyfall or Jaws

Music is used to signal an iconic moment and the return of an iconic prop in the James Bond Series, which is the Aston Martin DB5. The Aston Martin DB5 was the car that Sean Connery drove around in the first ever Bond film Dr.No and has become an iconic figure in the James Bond series. The music is meant to symbolize that and pass on the cars importance to the film series long time fans and younger audience who first Bond film was Skyfall. 

The use of Mood Music is a standard convention in films and a prime example of this is in Jaws as whenever the audience would hear the music they would instantly think that the Shark (Jaws) was about to attack.

Go straight to 1 minute and 40 seconds as the rest is just talking

The music is supposed to strike fear and anxiety into the mind of the audience and build up the scenes suspense as the Shark is about to turn up which also means that someone is about to die.
