Sound

For today's activity we specifically focused on sound and the importance of it. The teacher made me realise that sound is the main key of making the audience feel emotion.

The teacher played alot of differant sounds where we had to write what genre it belonged to and how it made us feel. for example, the first sound i heard was a sharp tone voice of a girl screamining. This gave me a frighting feeling, i believe the genre was horror, or thriller.

To gain a better understanding of sound we looked at a range of opening of movies of the first two minutes and wrote down the sound that i could here, how it made me feel
and the reason for that sound in the openinning also we had to include the new key terminology that we learnt and state if it uses any of the terminology, if so why. The terminologies is written below.

In conclusion, this activity helped me understand how sound has a huge impact on the audience and how it makes them feel emotion.
