Diegetic Sound & Non Diegetic.

We decided to re-record diegetic sound to the sound more intense, as there is no dialogue we want the diegetic sounds to be very powerful, and we feel on the actual clip it doesn't achieve that, the list of sounds we are going to re-record are -

  • Thump of the body
  • Rustling of the leaves under his feet
  • Sound of the boot of the car slamming
  • Breathing and panting of the man
  • Digging sounds of the hole
  • The wind in the tree's
  • Car door opening/closing
  • Turning off the car
  • Water from the sink in the kitchen scene
  • The tap in the kitchen
  • Car Tyre approaching
  • Night time sounds, ie crickets, ghostly eerie sounds.
Once we have finished editing we decided to delete all of the original sound as create it all using final cut express. This would work better than using the original as the sounds will be clearer and there will be no unwanted background sounds.

Non Diegetic sound

Kicthen scene-
During the kitchen scene, we have put in the sound of the running tap made from a clip on final cut express, and then also a eerie electronic sound has been put in to add supsense, however the eerie sound is very subtle so that it is loud enough to hear but quiet enough to make it seem more part of the scene and diegetic rather than an added sound.

Digging scene-
We don't think its necessary to use any non diegetic music in this scene as the diegetic sound is going to be far more effective when we re-record it, so we decided that we wouldn't use any music in the scene. We have added background sounds and like crickets and wind blowing as it sets the scene of it being night time and in the dark.

Blair Witch Project



In our clip we used shakey camera work, not quite hand held, like our example, but just a little bit shakey, we used this effect as it makes it look rough, because we filmed in a bumpy location, our main character was tripping over things, we thought by following him with the camera showing him trip up will make the audience feel what he is feeling, and feel like they are experiencing his difficulty and making them feel like they are there watching it.
