Apocalypse Now - Helicopter Attack- Kilgore

Diegetic sound used: (0:00 - 0:07)
The sound of the helicopters deafens out all other sounds being made in the scene. This is a diegetic sound because the sound is actually created by the object in the scene. This means that the sound does not have to be added in at the end, in the final edits of the film.

Non-Diegetic sound used:  (3:46 - 3:56)
Background music is being played as the helicopter fly. This is non-diegetic sound because the background music has been added in in the final editing. This has been added in at the end to add another effect to the overall atmosphere of the scene. These sounds usually start on screen and end up coming on screen.

Sound bridges used: (0:27 - 0:34)
The noise from the helicopter carries on into the next scene when a man is signalling it to land. This is a sound bridge because the helicopter moves into the scene as long as the sound of it, whilst another sound is coming from a man trying to get the helicopter attention at the same time. They also give the film a sense of linking.

Parallel sound used: (4:28 - 4:37)
Happy music is being played when the troops are being sent in to help out.This is parallel sound because the music compliments the scene. This is because the happy music helps to create the atmosphere of hope and will make the viewer think that things will turn out good for the troops.

Contrapuntal sound used: (8:25 - 8:32)
Happy music is being played when the troops are under heavy attack. This is contrapuntal sound because it is not a good thing that the troops are being attacked so a more depressing piece of music should be playing in the background the compliment the scene better.
