Non-Diegetic Sounds and Music Ideas

Music and Non-Diegetic sound ideas for The Ring


Pip has created a mixture of different sounds to show how we want our new scene to sound like.




She used a variety of sounds including footsteps, wedding bells, champagne glasses clinging together, birds, background group chat and laughter from the website Freesound.org to create this sound montage. She then downloaded them and imported them onto Garageband, where she edited the sounds together so that they overlapped each other to create a realistic sounding wedding scene. She exported the finished music track onto iMovie and added in some images from Google that were similar to the shots we want to use so that she could show us how the sounds would correlate with the video.

The scene begins with the sound of wedding church bells and a long shot of a church, so Pip overlapped the sounds of birds tweeting to create an atmosphere similar to a typical wedding scene. She then added the sounds of crowds cheering, for when the bride and groom walk out of the church door. After a sound of champagne glasses clinking together and someone proposing a toast to the newly-weds, there is a loud bell chime which is the beginning of the tension being built up. the bell chimes once more as the bride is walking up some wooden stairs to the top of the church and after she sees her husband with a knife dripping blood, she screams. There is then one last bell chime and the title screen fades in
