Music Music will be the backbone of the film. We want the soundtrack to become synonymous with the plot, so that the film springs to mind on hearing just a view chords. This is what we'd like to create here. A piece that underlines all the different parts of our story and punctuates the playful drama of the spot. It will also help change the tone from joy, to the drama, despair and then finally to the harmony and perfect synchronicity with find in our haven at State Farm. We could even use some sound effects to enhance the viewers’ experience, especially in the first script, where we want the crowd to be not only to be seen, but heard. The chants, the shouts, the heavy footed trudge as they make their way through a normally peaceful setting. …show more content…
Our poor couple walks directly into their living room to find it submerged in water from a large leak in the ceiling which appears to be coming from the neighbour above. We don’t understand completely what has happened, but clearly realise that our couple is blameless and the fault probably either rests with a leaky pipe or the bath being left running above. Regardless of which, the whole situation is a complete disaster - everything is ruined, the carpet, the sofa, which is now one big puddle. We could even have a cool piece of art on the wall which is soaked and now ruining all down the white, water damaged …show more content…
They LOVE it, and if they had any doubts they would be quickly squashed as they walk around to see a pool, ironically with a cascade (well, a small one). State Farm has really realised, for them, everything that could have ever wanted. At the end we find them in the State Farm Office, but unlike in the former script, we have to make both the couples collide to demonstrate the flip side of the coin and show that State Farm can help with ALL eventualities in life. Playing on the parallels with lots of light humour to make the dark a little darker, but also the resolution even better. This will really hammer home the importance of planning, whether it is being smart and getting insurance or whether it is about savings. What we are showing the viewer here in that unlike the first script, many of our customers lives coincide, a little like the sliding doors effect, you never know what the future holds, which is why State Farm has you covered. One couple, receiving emotional and insurance support, whilst the other beaming as they come to finalise their savings, leaving the message with the viewer that State Farm is with you every step on the
These emotions empower those in the audience to make a change and step forward into a new and changing
Joe and Maddie know that when the farm goes to Jupiter, it will destroy a lot of land in the process. As a result, both of them attempt to get rid of it. Joe goes to see someone who previously had farm issues. On the other hand, Maddie begins to sympathize with the farm more as the story goes on. She likes the idea of being a collective rather than just an individual.
Being concerned about protecting the things you love are the natural instincts of mankind. We live in a world of ultimate control and have all experienced the unannounced spontaneous events that life throws just to prove we are not in control of everything. Alas, we should never feel the fear of not being in control and the inability to protect our loved ones. The “Never” State Farm commercial uses this feeling to convince families to buy their insurance to protect their values in everyday life. The State Farm Insurance commercial begins with an eligible bachelor that states he is never getting married.
One sound effect that had a big impact on the trailer is the sound of neighbors arguing in the beginning of the trailer. In the book, Winston’s neighbors, the Parsons, were shown to be a less-than-harmonious family, and while they never showed any active tension, the arguing is used to amplify the feeling of social tension in 1984. This social tension also added to the dystopian feeling of the trailer, which connected it to the genre of the book, which is dystopian. Finally, an important sound effect that was used throughout the book was the sound that accompanied the telescreen. While the origin of the sound changes each time the scene was shown, the chaotic, loud characteristic remained.
Sound is very important in this film because of lot of sound is edited to fit in certain spots including music. During the activist movement, we can clearly hear the hurt in these people voices. Riots, shouting and clapping were all heard in most of the shots along with a voice in the background explaining exactly what is going on. Music was edited into some of the scenes to help give more of a scary or haunted approach. There was also sounds that were in scenes which sounded like someone or something huge is about to take place.
One of Alfred Hitchcock’s most famous movie scene is the ‘crop duster’ scene from North By Northwest. This scene demonstrates how the score and music of a film is incredibly important to build up tension in a classic thriller. The film’s music and scores were written by Bernard Herrmann, a well-known Hollywood composer (hitchcock.tv). In the infamous crop duster scene, Herrmann and Hitchcock used diegetic sounds to build suspense and uncertainty. The diegetic or natural sounds emphasized the distance of objects from the protagonist.
Because it was a musical, the sound effects had to be perfect in order for a good preformance, and that it was. The preformers used approbnbpiate microphones for the various scenes; vintage microphones for the 1940s and 1950s songs and scenes from that time period theater preformances for example. The sound was not as crisp during these scenses, bringing the viewer into the world and time period of the song. Like from the video, this was very subtle and I would not have noticed had the lady next to me not pointed it out. The next element were the light schemes.
Sound is being used to create or sense the mood for the audience. For example, when Kim’s father is outside, diegetic sound is used so the characters hear the baseball game playing in the background which makes the situation exciting for the audience. Edward finishes trimming a bush (the dinosaur) and everyone is amazed. This can appear to create a dramatic and happy effect for the audience. The sound then crescendos to make it seem as if Edward is being cheered on by the crowd.
The dramatic contrast of dynamics between themes, pitch, chromatic harmonies and discords used in Night on Bald Mountain are still used in musical scores for horror movies. I remember hearing this music in Disney’s Fantasia and thinking, “Boy, do I need to run.” It still has that same effect. In the movie, Chernabog, the evil god, appears in the final segment of the film and summons spirits around the mountain. There’s not another score of music that could perfectly illustrate the final scene of Disney’s Fantasia than Night of Bald Mountain.
For 10 out of 12, all the wireless microphones that ran through the house system was probably difficult since not every show uses mics but for A Streetcar Named Desire there is no need for mics all off stage comments and sound effects can be done behind the set or by sound effects. For this show, there would be quite a few sound effects. Street noise of cars passing by is needed since they are in the heart of New Orleans. During Taming the Shrew, the sound engineer had the sound of cars run through each speaker to make it sound like the car is passing by and giving the Doppler effect. I would like to see that effect during this show as well.

The dialogue in Hemingway’s “Hills Like White Elephants” reveals a man’s and a woman’s incongruent conflict on abortion, and the author’s fundamentally feminist position is visible in the portrayal of the woman’s independent choice of whether or not to keep the baby she is carrying. The plot is very simple in the story which is less than 1500 words long. A woman and a man spend less than an hour on a hot summers day at a Spanish train station in the valley of Ebro as they are waiting for a train heading for Madrid. Their dialogue takes up most of the space and only few major actions take place.

In The Sound of Music, Rodgers and Hammerstein created fourteen pieces tailored to the various scenes: The Hills Are Alive - The Sound of Music, Overture, Morning Hymn, Maria, I Have Confidence, Sixteen Going on Seventeen, My Favorite Things, The Lonely Goatherd, Do-Re-Mi, Something Good, Processional, Edelweiss, So Long Farwell, and Climb Every Mountain. While I won’t deal with each of these individually, as it could take years to properly analyze each piece of music in the movie, my point of focus will be directed towards the opening piece, “The Hills Are Alive – The Sound of Music”. The movie’s opening visual, which happens to be one of the most iconic scenes, sets a positive and carefree mood showing Maria Von Trapp (Julie Andrews) innocently dancing on top of a majestic mountaintop with breathtaking views behind her, and the sun glowing on her face. The song, which happens to be named after the film, compliments this image well, as it too, sounds innocent, positive and playful. The piece has a high pitch and a strong melody, setting an upbeat and positive mood, creating excitement and intrigue to continue watching.
These sound included the ambient background, visual props sounds or Foley sounds, and musical tracks and characters voices in the
