My Movie Log #2 Prompt
In this unit on sound, we are learning about the sources of sound (i.e. where the sound is coming from) in the shot/sequence of analysis. Â The three pairings we are using:
Diegetic/nondiegetic sounds
On-screen/offscreen sounds
Internal/external sounds
Explore each of these pairings in a mini-analysis using Mad Max: Fury Road. Â
Your journal entry should be formatted in three paragraphs (150 words each). For each paragraph:
Briefly describe the specific pairing (in your own words). For example, describe diegetic sound and non-diegetic sound in your own words.
Give one specific example of a sound/sound effect in Mad Max: Fury Road that illustrates each of the terms.  For example, specify a sound/sound effect in your selected feature film that you believe is a diegetic sound. And another sound/sound effect you believe is a nondiegetic sound.  Be sure to “set the scene/moment†in the movie so that the reader understands the moment you are referencing in the movie.  The two examples do not need to be within the same shot/sequence.
