Analyse how sound is used in the extract to create meaning. Refer to at least two examples from the extract in your answer:
The use of diegetic sounds in the extract such as the vehicle smashing into the glass connotes the amount of violence and action that is going on. Similarly, the diegetic sound of the sirens creates a sense of fear and danger for the audience while it also immerses the audience into the life of the programme.
Next, there is a use of background sound, when they are in the cafe there is a lot of chatter and diegetic music which makes it seem more realistic and surreal. It is very effective when we can hear them speaking on their radios, yet we can see something different, this use of off screen speech is effective as it gives depth to the narrative.
Finally, non-diegetic music was added in during the robbery and car chase which connotes a sense danger and it exaggerates the experience even more and adds tension.
