Clips for Sounds

diegetic sound - this is when the sound comes from a person or object in the diegesis (the world of the story) and seen within the field of vision
in this clip of a tv series geordie shore, there is music playing in their house, this music is diegetic because the audience can hear it but also the people in the series can hear it aswell. this effect is used to make it seem more realistic.
non diegetic sound - this is when sound that comes from nothing within the field of vision ad has been added afterwards in the editing process. the clearest examples are of soundtrack music or a voiceover.
this is a clip of some baloons being popped. non diegetic sounds are coming when the balloons are being popped to make the audience believe they have a different sound each time they pop. however the actor or the balloon popper in this case, cant hear these sounds.

synchronous sound - where the sound is synchronised with the object emitting that sound - as in lip sync- where the actors mouth moves exactly in time with the words we hear.

in parts of this clip we are shown the actor cook, he is directly speaking to somebody and his lips are in sync with what he is saying, this is a simple affect and adds realism.

asynchronous sound - this is where the sound track is deliberately out of sync with what we see. it is a rare effect in TV drama. a good example at the end of the graduate is where we have a montage of faces and voices in the church, all shouting ben but the voices do not synchronise with the faces we see.
in this is the final scene in the film 'The Graduate' in this clip when Ben escaoes from the wedding you can hear Ben being shouted by not with in sync lips.

sound effects - sounds added to the visuals in editing. they may be naturalistic - the sound of traffic outside the window added to a shot film in a stuido - or unnaturalistic, perhaps for comic purpose (eg a boing sound) or to remind us we are watching construct (whooping sound that accompanies crash sounds.
 
this fight scene in sherlock holmes is a perfect example of the use of sound effects. they are used throughout the whole fight scene

sound motif - a sound associated with a character or place. this could be the humming of machinery associated with a factory or the threatening character might have a particular musical figure that plays when they appear or sort out a problem. James bond films have four related motifs in the theme tune, each indicating a narrative turning point eg, the part of the resolution of a chase sequence.
this clip has been tube chopped, it is in casio royale with daniel craig(james bond) fighting. the classic james bond song appears in the background.

sound bridge - this is where the sound (diegetic or non) continues across or or more cuts/transitions. examples include music running over clips of a montage.


this is a clear use of a sound bridge as the opening music is played over each montage

dialogue - the sound made by characters talking to each other. sometimes this is re recorded in a studio with the actors attempting to lip sync to the footage: This is called Foley recording.

this is a scene in adulthood where dialogue is shown clearly

voiceover - where a voice from outside the diegesis gives the audience information. often this voice tells us the story may be a character within the story.
about a boy is a great film with examples of voiceovers, however i couldnt find the opening scene on youtube that i could embed, in this clip there are alot of clips of voiceovers where will is thinking in his head.
