5 Master Edits with Sound

1. Diegetic Sound: I left the diegetic sound for my contrast and symbolism clips because I didn't want to change the mood. For contrast, the clip of my chemistry textbook and the clip of my running log gets the point of contrast across. For symbolism, the diegetic sound of me drinking water and the diegetic sound of my faucet running is the exact symbolism I wanted to convey.
2. Postsynchronization dubbing: I used postsynchronization dubbing for my parallelism clip. The original clip of me running at the meet had no sound, so I decided to add sound of my friend Whitney cheering for me at a different meet. This is an example of nondiegetic sound, but it increases the intensity and authenticity of my symbolism clip. Without sound, the parallelism would not be as powerful. The sound could be mistaken as coming directly from the original clip.
3. Voice over: I added a voice over for 2 of my simultaneity clips. The sound is me discussing how confused and stressed I am in one of my classes. This sound combined with the clips of me studying and not talking shows that the sound is actually my inner thoughts. This is the mood that I wanted to get across: my brother peacefully playing video games while I'm simultaneously studying and stressing about school.
4: Direct sound: I kept the direct sound in the parts of my leitmotiff where I was turning on my speaker. The sound of me pressing the speaker and the sound that my speaker makes every single time I turn it on was the point of the leitmotiff.
5: Music: I added music to the parts of my leitmotiff where I was laying in bed and applying makeup. This addition completed the idea of leitmotiff that I originally wanted to convey: that I listen to music from my speaker all the time. Without the song "Palms" and "3 Nights" that I added, there would be no music "playing from my speaker" to complete the leitmotiff.

I liked the Leitmotif sound edits, as I think it nicely illustrated the different kind of setting and atmosphere for the differing actions (laying down as opposed to doing makeup). The sound really added a lot of life and made the video make more sense!
