Watch the movie: Guardians of the of the galaxy (Use the pdf to guide u)

Then answer the questions:

The story of a film is told through narrative, visual language, and sound. There are two types of sound in film, diagetic and non-diagetic.  Diagetic is sound that is “generated” inside the cinematic world (examples, footfalls, fork sounds against plate as we watch diners eat.  The characters can hear it.).  Non-diagetic is sound just for us.  The characters can’t hear it (like big orchestral scores). 

Questions:

• 1. What role does music play (throughout the film) in the character development of Star Lord?  What do we learn about him? How does his music help us with context?
• 2. Discuss a scene where you feel the musical cues were clear and apparent, nudging the viewer to feel a certain way.
• 3. Discuss two instances of diagetic sound in the film.  What is their function?
• 4. Discuss two instances of non-diagetic sound.  What was its function?
