Sound blog tasks

Funny Games
1. The sound used in this video clip at the start indicates that the family lives a calm and happy life with an atmosphere you'd expect however the music then makes a change from parallel to contrapuntal which could indicate that the family is wreckless and may have some problems, which is suggested by the music.

2.The music at the start is parallel as it matches that atmosphere inside of the car and is what you would expect from a normal family. However the music then becomes contrapuntal as it changed to loud rock like music that doesn't match the families expressions which may show how they're feeling inside.

3. I think the narrative may develop into that of a thriller because of the disturbing loud contrapuntal music that begins to play.

Clockwork Orange
1.  The music in this scene is what you would expect as the characters are doing humorous things throughout like falling over and kicking each other so there is a use of parallel sound

2. This piece was used as the director wanted this music to represent one ofn the key themes in the movie.

Life On Mars 
1.  The sound helps establish the fact that it is set in an older time period back when this kind of funky music was first coming into trend.

Once Upon a Time in the West 
1. The sounds of the different props  grinding against each other and fly buzzing can build tension as it continuously goes on as the scene progresses as we wait to see what the protagonist is going to end up doing

2. The sound bridge in this clip is the fly continuously buzzing. This makes the audience think something dramatic is going to happen as you can see the man getting visibly irritated by it so he is obviously going to do something about it

Once Upon a Time in America
1. The digetic sound  is at the beginning when the two characters are having a conversation and the non digetic sound is the music sound track as the audience can only hear music and nobody else speaking.

2. The sound of the phone sets the films tone as it creates tension which could suggest the narrative could be a mystery and could also maybe be horror because of the fact that the phone rings at the end.
