JCM412512/Sound (Discussion)

Sound Perspective

1. Group X: Explain sound perspective. How do the four conventional microphone positions affect it?

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.
