Describe three diegetic sounds that are used in " The Wizard of Oz". What do these diegetic sounds add to the film? Do you think the filmmaker did a good job of including diegetic sounds to the film or are there sounds that you would add or subtract from the film? Explain your answer.

Diegetic sounds "come from inside the movie."

Description of three diegetic sounds

Three diegetic sounds are evidenced in the dialogues shown throughout the movie:

  1. When the wicked witch, good witch, and Dorothy are discussing the red slippers she has on her feet.
  2. When Dorothy is talking to Toto or Glenda, the Witch of the North
  3. Singing is the musical part of the dialogue between the characters.

These diegetic sounds add to the film...

  • The "diegetic" sound used in number 1 and number 2 dialogues highlighted the characteristics of each character and the general atmosphere of each scene. If the diegetic dialogue had not been used, the film would be a "silent film" completely changing the sensations of the spectators and the way to connect with the director's proposal.
  • The third diegetic sound adds elements to the movie that make it have musical gender characteristics.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the filmmaker did a great job including diegetic sounds because each sound helps to capture the generality of the movie and make us feel part of the action.
