Media Techniques: Sound

SOUND

Diegetic Sound: Usually refers to the sound that clearly and believably actually exists in the films world. Cn either be on or off screen. For example, character voices, sounds made by objects. 

Non-Diegetic Sound: Sound that is not visible on screen. For example; narrators commentary, sound effects for dramatics. 

Synchronous Sounds: Sound that is matched to certain movements occurring in the scene. For example, when footsteps correspond to feet walking.

Asynchronous Sounds: Are not matched with a visible source of the sound on screen. Such sounds are included so as to provide an appropriate emotional nuance, and they may also add to the realism of the film. 

Sound Motif: A sound effect or combination of sound effects that are associated with a particular character, setting, situation or idea through the film. 

Sound Bridge: Sound bridges can lead in and out of a scene. They are one of the most common transitions in continuity editing styles, one that stresses the connection between two scenes since their mood, usually suggested by music, is still the same.
