There isn't as much soundtrack music compared to other thrillers so the film relied more heavily on the sounds that seem to come from both inside and outside of the shelter. Michelle often uses sounds to convey where she is and deduct whether or not it truly is safe to go outside. The sounds of the film are heightened in order to give to film a more unsettling and tense feeling. Invisible sounds help to create these feelings such as the creaking of the stairs, opening and closing of locks, moaning pipes, and when Michelle believes that she has heard a car above her room. The sounds are used to tell the inner story and convey Michelle’s emotions as she struggles to deal with her current situation.

10.) Jaycee uses a lot of figurative language throughout the novel especially, when she is describing her abduction and having sex with Philip. “I hear the crackling sound and I feel paralyzed” (Dugard 9).

The imagery also suggests that noise isn’t only auditory but also visual. The sexual and violent imagery being the bad, and the calm and natural imagery being the good. “Noise” by Kenny Chesney argues that we are surrounded noises that affect us negatively, and that noise isn’t always auditory. Chesney supports his argument through several different rhetorical strategies and in several layers. Parallel structure and repetition in the lyrics convey his thoughts towards bad sounds, tone in the audio convey his thoughts between good and bad noises, and imagery is used in the video to suggest that noise isn’t only auditory, but also
Although the image elements are important, they could be considered secondary to aural effects; the feature largely relies on verbal humor, voice talent, sound effects, and script writing for success. In particular, the storyline itself revolves around the idea that the main character “speaks” in rambunctious sound effects. The sound effects drive the entire story, from the relationships and interactions Gerald has with his neighbors, to the reason as to why he becomes famous in the feature’s conclusion. Many of the punchlines come from the action of incredible explosive noises emanating from a small, young boy. In addition, the dialogue is spoken in a kind of sing-song rhyme, adding to the whimsical nature of the animation; the humorous and dramatic voice acting also helps to further accentuate the personalities of the characters, along with their exaggerated movements.
Naturalistic sounds such as those that appear in real life are used in the film to emphasize comedic content. Singin’ in the Rain reveals naturalistic sounds as meticulously constructed to broadcast its reflexivity of the draw not only attention to itself but the techniques of creating film in general. A proficient example is during the sequence where Don spouts an effective narration before getting out of Kathy’s car while then ripping his coat as his attempts to make a dignified exit. Another example of natural sound would be during the premiere of the film within a film when we see the main character Don throw his cane off screen. During a silent film this type of move would be considered dramatic but the cane lands somewhere near a microphone
It makes the overall work more dark and robust.” Avery said that the variety and doctoring of the sounds made her feel disassociated from her surroundings and engaged in the new occurrences within the video. There is not one specific fear or theme to focus on, but rather a
Early in the film, the importance of background music and its use can be seen. The music is used to create the mood, whether it be the eerie violin audio that often can be heard at times where suspense is anticipated or the same music to create sorrow for the overall significance of the film. The film being built upon a murder case creates fury and differing viewpoints between the main characters which often can be related to prejudice. The use of details not only makes the murder more interesting but also the overall scene more intense. The detailed dialogue among the characters is so precise it offers minute details such as the witness statement of the time of the crime, the entry way of the weapon, and the witness testifying without her glasses.
“Movies are like an expensive form of therapy for me”(Burton). Tim Burton, a very mysterious and dark director, had produced many unsettling but fantastic movies. Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are two very well produced movies from him, which feature common themes shown with appropriate cinematic elements. Tim Burton uses tilt, low key lighting, and non-diegetic sounds in Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to convey how creepiness can lead to curiosity. Tilts are generally used to show the vertical significance of something.
Life is an intense struggle of discovering the depths of one’s identity, and often this discovery is only made when all of life’s pieces come together. David Fincher’s movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button delves into this idea of self-discovery and its relation to time. When Daisy reflects on her life through Benjamin’s perspective, experiencing his emotions, encounters, and perception of the world, Fincher suggests that time is of the essence and only when it has run out will one truly understand how valuable life is: how the people shape who we are and how the struggles we face build our character.
Throughout this entire poem Brutus makes it evident that there are many different sounds. Sounds shape this entire poem into what you believe it means.

The repetition of the clapping song in the scenes emphasises the frequency of the abuse perpetrated on Ruby and Jimmy, and whilst Ruby 's scenes ended with the line "I promise not to tell", Jimmy does not speak, which foreshadows the traits of sexually assaulted victims; blame and ashamedness.
