Diegetic Sound - Sound that occurs on camera, not edited in


Non Diegetic - Sounds that have been edited in over the recording 

Synchronous sound - Sound that matches with actions on the screen, for example, the sound of footsteps over visual of someone walking 

Sound Effect - A sound other than speech or music made artificially for use in a play, film or other broadcast production

Voice over - a piece of narration in a film or broadcast

Sound bridges - One of the most common transitions in the continuity editing style, one that stresses the connection between both scenes

Sound motif - a dominant or reoccurring theme/sound
Throughout this clip from Mission impossible, there is a buildup of orchestral background music, creating tension within the clip, then as Tom Cruise does a death defying leap, the main and most recognizable section of the theme tune for the film occours. This is also noticeable in various similar action and adventure themes for example, the James bond films use the well known orchestral theme repetitively in Bond films which the audience then recognizes and knows that something violent/tense/some conflict is about to occour



Direct address - Also known as breaking the fourth wall is a situation where a character in the film will speak directly to the audience, momentarily breaking the illusion/realism in the film
In this clip, one of the characters looks directly at the camera in a bit parodying product placement n popular movies, this is effective as it feels as if the message is personalized to the viewer
