JCM412512/Sound (Discussion)

Sound Perspective

1. Group X: Explain sound perspective. How do the four conventional microphone positions affect it? Explain how Figure 10.6 illustrated mismatched perspective between the image and the sound.

Space, Time and Narrative (Diegesis)

Using the clips from from Traffic and Damages:

1. Group X: Explain how they use nondiegetic sound. (Bonus question: how does Damages use a nondiegetic image, too?)
2. Group X: Explain how they use sound that is not simultaneous with the image. Is this non-simultaneous sound earlier or later than the image?

Digital Versus Analog Recording

1. Group X: Explain the difference between analog and digital sound recording.
