Clockwork Orange Sound analysis

Clockwork Orange

1. I think the choice of music was completely contrapuntal to the extract from Clockwork Orange when the violence started to occur within the characters. Even from the start, it didn't match the extract as the choice of music is instrumental and extremely classic. For the music being extremely classic, it didn't match the extract for the following reasons; the video looked more new and the classic song sounded extremely professional and it looks like its a music for high classed people and the characters did not look high class at all due to their costume and the setting. The characters were wearing hilarious costumes to make themselves look weird and abnormal. Additionally, the music was a non-diegetic sound meaning that the sound was later added on the editing software to make the sound contrapuntal to the video. Also, the meaning o fit is that the audience are only able to hear the music whereas the character within the video are not able to hear it. Moreover, sound bridges are sounds that continue even when the visual image has moved to the next scene. Within the video, we did have a sound bridge where the sound was consistent throughout the whole video and while it was playing, the videos kept moving to one scene onto another. Furthermore, there was voice overs added on. The voice-over is a definite non-diegetic sound meaning that the voice over was slotted in with the video on the editing software. If it was a diegetic sound, we would see the character speaking. Moreover, as the characters turned violent, the volume of the non diegetic music immediately went higher to make it more enthusiastic even though the music was contrapuntal to the video.
