Sound M8
Synchronous Sound
• Sound that appears to be matched to certain
movements occurring in the scene, as when
footsteps correspond to feet walking. It’s
when sound matches the action on screen.
Asynchronous Sound
• Sound which is indigenous to the action but
not precisely synchronized with the
action. This could be non-diegetic sound in
most cases.
Sound Effects
• A sound other than speech or music made
artificially for use in a play, film, or other
broadcast production that is played over the
top of the film.
Sound Bridge
• When the scene begins with the carry-over
sound from the previous scene before the
new sound begins.
Dialogue
• The conversation between two or more
people that can be heard and seen on screen.
Voiceover
• Speech that is artificially added to video and
played over the top, often as a narration to a
video clip.
Mode of Address
• Modes of address can be defined as the ways
in which relations between addresser and
addressee are constructed in a text or video.
Sound Mixing
• The process during the post-production stage
of a film or a television program in which the
collection of recorded sounds are combined
into one or more channels along with
adjusting the many attributes of the sounds
such as the source signals’ level.
Sound Perspective
• A sound’s position in space as perceived by
the viewer given by volume, timbre, and pitch.
Sound Track
• The song that is often played at the beginning
of the film which is associated with a piece of
video or film.
Score
• A written form of a musical composition; parts
for different instruments appear on separate
staves on large pages. This can be musically
composed and written especially for a
production.
Incidental Music
• Incidental music is music in a play, television
program, radio program, video game, film, or
some other presentation form that is not
primarily musical. The term is less frequently
applied to film music, with such music being
referred to instead as the "film score" or
"soundtrack".
Ambient Sound
• A style of gentle, largely electronic
instrumental music with no persistent beat,
used to create or enhance a mood or
atmosphere.
Themes & Stings
• A sting is a short musical phrase, primarily
used in broadcasting and films as a form of
punctuation. For example, a sting might be
used to introduce a regular section of a show,
indicate the end of a scene, or indicate that a
dramatic climax is imminent.
