RESEARCH - Why is sound important in a film?

SOUND
...............
In films sound is used to establish the tone, atmosphere or even gerne of the movie. It also helps people to 'suspense belief' ( make people believe in anything, even if they know it's not real) and also, make the audience feel as if they are the main character in the film. 

The actual definition of sound is: ''vibrations  traveling through the air that  can be heard.'' 
So it means that the sound is simply everything you hear.




 However, sound has many more elements. For example: soundscape is a piece of music that consists different components of sounds like rainforest. The layers of sounds add onto each other to create one noisy sound.



Moreover, people often tend to manipulate sound by adding or changing audio elements to make it more suitable for the target marker. This is called sound design. It is often used in film industry for background sound. 

Without background sounds many films  would be boring and hard to understand, there would be less emotions and feelings. Sound helps to create tension, release feelings and entertain the audience.
