3.1 INTEGRATING DIEGETIC AND NON-DIEGETIC SOUND INTO A VIDEO PROJECT

In my short film The Bradley Parable I both use diegetic and non-diegetic sound this means I have to mix these two together to create a nice experience that isn't to jarring or annoying to hear while I'm trying to tell my story.

Diegetic Sound

First there was diegetic sound and this was most easy part of the mixing as I simply used the diegetic audio record on my phone and lowered the audio in premiere pro and in some cases made the music I put over it for effect.

Music

The next thing was the music, the music I used was calm as it doesn't try to be loud so I didn't need to change the music to be quieter and that was ok and also for this music I needed to end the first version of the song I was using to begin the other part quicker so I simply shortened the audio and began the panic version of the song. For the panic version of the song I did need to change it a little as this small 20 or so seconds of music is way more loud so I did need to change some diegetic sound to match it.

Narration

The narrator in the story is a very key part in my story so it was important to make sure that the views here it so I made the sound of the video quieter to make sure the view hears the narrator and the only time I intentionally made it hard to hear the narration is at the ending when the music is loud for effect.

Advertising Research for College advert

Image
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg4Mq5EAEzw I know these examples aren't really similar to a advert for a college but bare with me this is a link to an advertisement for coca cola that was made around Christmas 2020 the goal of this advert is to associate Coca Cola with happiness and Christmas time therefore you buy more of their product and if I was able to make students feel productive through the ad I make it would be very effective. Things I like about this ad is that the shots in it were lit very well and were nice to look at and in my ad for Sunderland college I also want that in either the magazine or video I create making the add more appealing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Juv2c0xgGno This is an advert created by John Lewis and like the Coca Cola advert that I spoke about before it gets the viewer to associate their product as a warm and nice and happy product around Christmas time therefore making the viewer want to buy the product they are selling. the upsides to this

Survey results Analysis

The first question in the survey was "what is your preferred drink" and the answers were overwhelmingly coca cola and fanta was second and following was just plain water.  The second question was "what is the best gaming platform" and the answers were actually pretty mixed as the most preferred was xbox followed by PC and then PS4.  The third question what game is better GTA 5 or saints row and surprisingly saints row won.  The next question was what is the best place to eat and the answers where the answers where very different as peoples answers where all very different as no place actually won as mac donalds and the local chippy tied.  The fourth question was asking what is the best sport and football and ruby tied.  The fifth question was just asking the gender of the user and there was way more men then women.  The sixth question was what’s your favourite kind of genre and all the mostly tired except from comedy and horror being only a little bit higher than th
