Sounds in different movie genre



When it comes to making a movie, a sound is a great way to have in a scene. It will tell the audience of how to feel while watching a movie. A sound can come in two technical elements such as dialogue and in music. An example of a dialogue can be used in Tim Burton’s film “Edward Scissorhands. It can be express of how the main character Edward play by Johnny Depp is carving a sculpture of Kim. Kim is play by Wynomia Rider. Kim is dancing around the ice shaves. She is pretending that she is dancing in snow. The town that she lived in hasn’t snow in years. She felt like she was living in a dream. The dialogue of that particular scene is so what of a fairytale. Tim Burton wanted to have a 1950’s sort of feel in the movie. Another dialogue can be used in the Slumdog millionaire. It was upbeat scene where Jamal was waited for Latika to arrive.  The sound of happiness is when Jamal saw that Latika came and then it change where the people want Lakita back. It changes from excitement to danger in one scene.  It has sort of Bollywood music theme to it as well.


Another sample is music in movies. Music can be in musical or in soundtrack. In Slumdog Millionaire, there was a scene after the movie was over. It was a dance where the two main characters were dancing in. The name of the song was “Jai Ho” performed by the Pussycat Dolls. Jai Ho is mean “may there be victory or victory unto thee. Another sample is the movie Moulin Rouge. Moulin Rouge is a movie where an English writer falls in love with a cabaret actress. It is a musical with different type of sound and express. One scene when the two character Christian and Satine is on an elephant statue. Their love for each other is hidden with passion and understanding in the song of “Elephant love Medley”.
