Setting and Sound

Setting.

Setting creates a sense of place and a mood, sometimes filters will be put over the scene to help create the right atmosphere like an orange filter would give the shot a warm feel or a blue filter would give it a cold, icy feel. It may also reflect a character’s emotional state of mind. Setting can be entirely built within a studio, either as an authentic re-construction of reality or as a whimsical fiction. The setting may also be found and filmed on a location. Filters are usually put over scenes to 

Sound.

In film there are certain names for different types of sound. When sounds are Diegetic, they are within the environment of the film, this include dialog unless it is a voice over (where a voice is recorded and played over the scene) and Non-Diegetic is added sound. Incidental music backs up the action on the screen which is used to add emphasis to the action. Background/surrounding sounds like traffic noise is called Ambient sounds. Sound can be used to emphasize a characters emotions (a slow song to imply they are upset) or to help set a certain type of atmosphere. Some films have Theme music which is when  the audience identify a piece of memorable music or tune linked with that film straight away. Sounds can be created from almost anything for example broken celery can be used for broken bones or if you pierce a knife through a cabbage, it will hear like stabbing.
