26/11 & 27/11 Research

26/11
I watched some Vimeo films to analyse the aspects and uses of sounds from various productions. I chose to use Vimeo as a lot more independent and short productions can be sourced from here:
- Sammy the explorer https://vimeo.com/112653472
The music used in the film makes the happy as it has really upbeat instruments. I especially liked the sounds used when the explorer kit is seen in the film.
- Ferguson Speaks: A communique from Ferguson https://vimeo.com/111938224
The sound of the chimes are quite eerie and provide something that is quite unexpected. I like the use of silence as it exaggerated.
- Playground https://vimeo.com/112483572
The piano keys used in this piece express the sadness of the film. I liked how the jazz music make this production uplifting and how the sound is used to bring focus to specific objects that are visible
- Manhunt https://vimeo.com/110455536
I've noticed pianos are used between this and the previous production to express sadness. I found it interesting that peaking is used to provide the eerie essence of the film.

I watched an episode of Game of Thrones, which was from season 3, episode 3. There was a scene where the castle is shown, however the sound is like the sound from a courtyard. I found this interesting, because the castle wouldn't sound anything like that in actual reality.
