VOX POP

My Question:
Do you think that school uniform should be banned? Why?

Hollie: Yes, because it will make students feel more relaxed in the school environment.
Kylie: No, because some people might get made fun of if they don't have 'cool' clothes.
Ms Stott: Yes, because it would be easier for media lesson photoshoots.

Cue:
Massive debates about school uniforms as children begin to protest against it!

Sound

There are two main categories of sound in film, diegetic and non-diegetic.
Diegetic is sound that the character can hear.
Non-diegetic is sound the characters cannot hear, but the audience can (it adds atmosphere/makes you feel emotions)

Examples:
Diegetic: dialogue, ambient sound and sound affects.
Non-diegetic: music, voice over ad sound affects.
