The film clip I had chosen was “Get Out” which was directed by Jordan Peele. In the clip you can see a young black man named “Andre” (IMDb) was walking through a darkly lit neighborhood, when suddenly a white car drives past him then makes a U-turn and stops right by him. Andre quickly walks in the opposite direction, but is surprised when someone attacks him from behind and is knocked unconscious and dragged to the car.
In the clip I had noticed some diegetic music playing such as when the white car approaches Andre, you can hear the music coming from the car. Another diegetic sound was the sound of footsteps by both Andre and his kidnapper. For nondiegetic music I had noticed a violin was playing towards the end of the scene. The diegetic and nondiegetic sounds/music in this clip adds to the spooky and scary effect of a horror film that leaves you in suspense, wondering what’s going to happen next. Moreover, when the car approaches Andre I noticed the dynamics of the music where it starts off quiet then gets louder, especially when Andre is attacked by his kidnapper is when the music climaxed. While the violin’s dynamic stays loud as the car drives away.
