Sound
Non-Diegetic
Tittle music:theme tunes (connote genre/represent Tv drama).
Sound motifs: sounds associated with certain character (often a villain like the shark in Jaws) that connote something good/bad about to happen.
Score/incidental: orchestral music used to connote tone/atmosphere.
Voice over: often used to give the viewer an insight into thoughts of a character (creating a bond between the audience and character), set the scene or progress the narrative.
Sound effects: used to connote atmosphere.
Diegetic
Synchronous sounds: sounds that match what you see on screen.
Sound effects: realistic sounds that match the action on screen creating realism and/or connoting atmosphere e.g. gun shots, door opening/closing.
Dialogue: characters speaking (dialogue progresses the narrative and reveals the character's personality/views to the viewer).
Ambient sound: natural background noise you would hear if the scene on screen were real - this is a vital when creating realism.
