Sound is vibrations, which travel through the air (about 330 m/s)
or another medium and are usually sensed by the ear. Sound
can be recorded electrically using a microphone and various
(mostly magnetic) recording methods.
Recording methods
- tape recorder,or analog tape recorder (Nagra) and
- DAT recorder,or digital recorder using a small DAT cassette.
The sound narration in cinematography is based on
These four elements can
- be heard at the same time
- occur alternately
- be synchronized with one another or, for example, with movement, image or light.
Listening is not automatic, it requires learning. Besides music, you
can learn to listen to other forms of narration.
The elements of sound narration explain or complement each other
when heard together. Heard together, they produce meanings
other than when heard separately. Speech together with music
provides an effect different from speech or music alone. Different
sounds synchronized with an image produce very different effects
when interpreting the image.
