Star Wars Diegetic&None Diegetic sounds.



Diegetic Sound: Comes from a source within the scene.
Eg- dialogue from the actors or music.

None Diegetic Sound: Sound is added to the soundtrack to heighten impact or create an emotional response.

                                                          None Diegetic shots.                                                     
    
1.(0:13) In this scene there is a use of None Diegetic sound. This part is very effective as it makes the viewer feel like the character is alone because of the tension the high pitched music creates, we get this feeling that everywhere is quite, dull and there is no one around. Because of the dramatic effect the audience begins to wonder what is going on, and what will happen next?
 
2.(0:46) In this second shot of None Diegetic Sound, a voice starts to appear and become louder than anything else going on in the scene that we can see, this helps the trailer become more exciting and creates suspense to the audience here is were we start to wonder that something is going to happen as  more powerful music kicks in.
 
3.(1:04) In this third shot of None Diegetic Sound, the scene creates a lot of tension as the music gets very loud and powerful, it also gives off the thought that action is taking place and makes us want to watch more. This part is an important and effective part as I think this is a main point were the trailer drags you in, because of the powerfulness the music gives off the viewers will want to watch the film.
 
 
 Diegetic Shots.
 
 
1(1:18) In this scene the director has used a use of Diegetic Sound, this is effective in the trailer as we can hear the sound of the ships and it creates a compelling emotion towards the viewer. It creates a big entrance as it zooms through the bright lights beams, we know that action is taking place and something is going to happen by the strength the scene gives. This makes us want to watch more and find out what is going on.
 
1.(1:35) In this second scene there is a use of Diegetic Sound, this part is effective as it shows the two ships shooting at each other in battle. This is very intriguing as it causes excitement and also can cause havoc as well. The viewer could have mixed emotions in this scene. The audience would enjoy this part as we want to know who will win, what spaceship destroyed the other, it could be havoc because the side that you were on, their spaceship could be the one that was demolished. 
 
2.(1:58) The Final  Diegetic Sound in this trailer is the sound of two of the main characters having a battle with their light sabers, the diegetic sound is the noise we are hearing coming from the sabers as they are being swung around and smashed together. This creates suspense and tension in the scene as we are nervous to find out who will be the last one standing and who will be defeated. This is effective because its not boring its thrilling and eye catching, making the viewer attached and wants to keep watching.

Scott Pilgrim Vs the World trailer.

This part of the trailer show a good use of Facial expressions and body language. The way the characters are positioned against a dull wall shows that the camera wants us to focus completely on the position of their bodies. making us examine the emotion their bodies are giving off and the facial expressions. From what I can tell the female character seems disinterested in what he is saying and by the way she is looking at him I feel like she is disconnected she doesn't want to be there with him.
                                                 
                                                        
                                                         
 
I think this screenshot from the trailer shows an effective Lighting and colour shot. I think the director has wanted the room to be quite hidden in a mixture of dark grey and black colours, so that we get drawn to the circle light beams surrounding Scott Pilgrim. These strong uses of the light create an effective feeling towards Scott causing tension and intrigue.
 
This is a Positioning of characters shot. I feel like this was a very important scene in the film as the way there bodies have been positioned creates the feeling of suspense,also the built up of a important battle. The way they are placed as if they are flying up in the air ready to launch at each other makes the trailer more intriguing and inviting to the viewer.

Camera shots & angles




Maze Runner: The Scorch Trails Trailer.



1. This shot is a Extreme long shot.. The director choose to use this this shot in the film, as it establishes were the scene is taken place. I also think that this is an effective way to start a trailer, as it is creating tension.

2. The director has chosen an effective Point of view shot in this part of the trailer, showing clearly the viewpoint when someone is looking at something or someone.


3. This screenshot shows how the trailer shows a two shot. This is when two figures are in the shot, to normally see if the two characters like each other or not, in this case however these characters are completing a task together.


4. This is a Close up shot. This is when the camera is only showing you up to their head and shoulders only, this helps us have a closer look at the characters facial expressions.




5. This is a High angle shot used in the trailer. This type of shot is when the camera is high up making the characters look smaller, directors use this to make the surroundings of the characters look huge. This is very effective in this trailer as it makes us think they will never get to the place they need to go.
