Micro-Elements - Sound

The micro-elements of sounds are divided between diagetic (speech) and non-diagetic (sounds added during editing such as sound effects.)

In film and TV non-diagetic can be used to add extra more emphasised sounds such as a door shutting, footsteps, dialect pre-recorded and added over the top etc. However, as we are making a music video sounds used are generally the artists song sometimes this does include speech, or instrumentation which would be a form of non-diagetic sound.

Sound micro-elements:
  • Diagetic
  • Non-diagetic
  • Sound track
  • Voice Over
  • Music score
  • Dialogue
  • Sound scape - helps add the drama of the scene - such as owls and crickets at night
  • character motif
