A Mini-Review of The Movie Soundtrack course

At first I was taken off-guard by the different definitions found in the course. I didn't know sound could be described as diagetic and non-diagetic. Sometimes musical pieces in the film are not always heard and I did not realize this. When I watch a film, the functions now help me distinguish how the story is unfolding and how the plot changes through out the story. The teacher of this course opened my mind to the different sounds we hear and how they are not always recorded during the making of the film (in post-production). I would recommend this course not only to people who need to take it for education purposes but to fans of film as well. There are a lot of ideas and tricks that can be learned and practiced when watching some favored films.
