Construction: Non Diegetic Music




Non Diegetic Music

In Deadly Love, I have chosen to use this non diegetic music called "The Threat" as a form of dark dramatic music to build suspense throughout the opening scene. The reason why I decided to use "The Threat" as the soundtrack of the film is because the sound of it is very mysterious, creepy and suspenseful with the addition of horror sound effects with crescendo violins. I have also played with diegetic and non diegetic sounds to create ambiguity like in horror movies. And I really believe that non diegetic music suggests how we ought to emotionally interpret the scenes we see; as a matter of fact "The Threat" matches perfectly what we see.
