The hunger games- Girl on fire I had to analyse the different sounds within this clip

which included volume control and dialogue.

Volume Control At the beginning of the clip the sounds were quite loud

as the crowds cheered.

However Katniss is really nervous so she cant help but block out the sounds this means it becomes really echoy.

Sound Perspective This is where the audience can tell if the sound is

coming from a particular place, whether it is near or far.

In this clip we can tell it is coming from a distance as the audience are clapping and cheering and are far away from the stage.

Dialogue Towards the end of the interview the interviewer had a

sypthetic tone towards Katniss when talking about her volunteering for her sister.

Ambient Sound Throughtout the interview you can hear the audience

constanly clapping and cheering.

This is the background sound in diegesis however its not in the field of vision.

Sound Bridge This is where it continues across one or more shots,

this is where the camera isnt on the character talking.

It would be on other characters or objects however the voice of the character still carries on.

An example is when the camera is on Katniss but the interviewer is talking.

Non diegetic sounds Non diegetic sounds are sounds which the main

character/characters cant hear but the audience and other people can.

This clip was an example because Katniss couldnt hear what the interviewer was saying because of her nerves.

Sound effects and Foley When her dress ‘swooshes” around it is unrealistic and

added in to the sound effects

The sound of the fire burning on her dress is also part of the sound effects and Foley.
