Case 342 Sound Analysis

Case 342 uses non diegetic (however diegetic when in the police station) sound through a sound bridge (between the beginning scene in which they are in a police station and the scene where he is in the house) The non diegetic narration is contrapuntal to the visual aspect.

Case 342 also has ambient sound as it's background soundtrack to build tension and suspense. There is no music and is instead replaced with this ambient sound to build the atmosphere. The ambient sound stops when the door is answered at the end of the clip.

The diegetic sound can be heard aswell but is quieter than the narration. This is more apparent when ambient track finishes and the door knocking can be heard.
