SOUND ANALYSIS

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auSAGvpM7W8&feature=youtu.be

As the extract begins, we have "ambient sound" of the flat which is very quiet. In the beginning minutes of the exctract there is no any form of soung except the "dialogue", which creates awkwardness.

The voices are quiet weak and the dialogue is not long, they do not finish their lines and this creates the pregnant awkwardness mood. The locking of the door makes the boy look anxious and more unfinished sentences add awkwardness.

Outside in the van the "diegetic sound" that plays on the radio is "asynchronous", it do not match the mood he is in, so he turns it off.

A "sound bridge" is used when the track starts in the car and bridges over to the bedroom and it's used to cross from the father's anxiousness in the car to the scene that is happening in the bedroom.

The type of  the sound track used is sad and depressing, creating the sense on sorrow. A "harmonica" was used to play the sad music.
