Music and sound contribute, along with the visual image, to the distinctive mood and feeling
of a film narrative. Students in this course investigate the importance of music and sound to
movies, including the use of scores, songs, musical motives, ambient sound, as well as
diegetic and nondiegetic sound. Class discussions include the relationship between a director
and a composer, how soundtracks add a psychological element to a film, and how the use of
foley enhances a sense of fantasy or realism. This course is for cinephiles and anyone
interested in the dynamics of audio and visual arts.
