Sound exercise evaluation
The sequence my group filmed was a mini thriller where there is a lot of weird sound, that is heard. We did include all the sound techniques, apart from the sound bridge as it wasn't possible for us to.
The first mistake that everyone in my group did, was that we didn't check the mic properly. Which resulted in us recording our sound exercise and when it came to editing there was no sound two. This lead to us to re-recording our sound exercise which is currently on my blog. Next time we will check the sound mic properly.
The first sequence we filmed was the phone scene, where the girl felt uneasy and was calming herself by listening to music. Which we the audience don't actually hear. We didn't include the diegetic music as we forgot to.
The second shot we filmed was the slamming of the door, which we captured effectively. We used the sound equipment properly, as the slam was loud. This created diegetic sound as both the audience and characters can hear the door slam. The use of parallel sound was also good too.
The next sequence filmed was the pan of the girl silently breathing, there was little diegetic sound. We didn't use the sound equipment effectively and also we didn't differentiate between diegetic and non diegetic sound. Although we did show a difference between off screen and on screen, as the audience don't know where the sound is coming from.
The fourth sequence filmed is of the white board that has writing on it. The sound is used effectively as we used non diegetic sound to engage the audience. Off scene is used to do this. Parallel sound is used, as the scary music matches the action on screen.
The next sequence filmed is the rattling of the door handle. Which captures the sound extremely well as it sound like the person on the other side of the door is really trying to get in. The sound is diegetic which show's on screen sound. Parallel sound is used as the action matches the sound.
The last the sequence we filmed was where the both the sound and sound equipment was used the most effectively. The sound of the breathing, running and screaming was diegetic and also they were all off screen sound, as the screen is blacked out and the audience cannot see the where the sound is coming from or the action. If the action was seen, then it would be parallel sound.
Overall because it was our second sound exercise, most of the film went well with sound as it was heard clearly. Although the improvements that need to be made are, we should properly check all our equipment is working. Lastly we should make sure to double check, so we don't forget to add or edit anything.
