SOUND EFFECTS


SOUND EFFECT


radio is a sound that enhances the ambience of an action or description of a place, a feeling ... By its nature, facilitates the imagination physical phenomena such as rain, night, but also the description of sensations and feelings such as anxiety or fear.

Balsebre Definition: The sound effect is a sound set of shapes represented by inarticulate sounds or musical structure of natural sound sources and / or artificial, that restore both objectively and subjectively building an image of reality.

Two types: Ø

natural sound effects: sounds captured from referential reality in the narrative and represent their own sound source. Eg birdsong. Ø

artificial sound effects, are more common in radio production. Its features allow them to be produced live. Should be identified with what they represent. The artificial production of a sound effect rests on a dissociation between the sound source and the object represented eg use of small steel plates to simulate rain. (Has nothing to do with the originating source sound effect and sound object shown).
Production Process:


The sound object is the representation of sound produced by the sound source from radio language systems, and has its own entity. Importance of credibility and the striking association between source and object. In itself, the sound effect generated images in the listener and increases the credibility of the message index sound.




Objectives of the sound effects in radio:

mimetic or reconstruction of reality that involves the sender and the recipient.

or distortion of reality to overdo it, providing humorous or dramatic dyes.

Ø Enhancing the representation of feelings and exploiting their traditional association with the forces of nature.

Objectivity leads to mimetic reconstruction, while the subjective seeks to delve into the emotions. A single sound effect can have multiple meanings depending on the type of restitution (the context will give the semantic dimension one):

sound effects Features:

-environmental or descriptive: the effect is part of the environment in which action and has developed a natural character. Eg anyone expect a call and the phone rings / It is winter and the cold wind stresses the environment.

or descriptive expression: the effect reinforces the feelings, moods of the protagonists. Example: To indicate that someone has died can use the bells of the church / to highlight the hopes and anguish of it, you can use the ticking of a clock.

A single sound effect can play either or both functions simultaneously. The context that will ultimately determine the descriptive or expressive (or both at once) the same effect. The sound effect reaches its peak when it manages to semantic information (the sound of a door opening), and also highlights and accentuates a feeling (the door opens why you have to face the truth). Ø

Narrative:

a) marks the transition space / time between a sequence and another (ie, the cock crows to signal the arrival of the day)
b) Reconstruct an action that requires no word or music (eg the sound of the TV, dishes ... to indicate that this person eats alone.)
c) Represents a character or highlight an important feature of it. (Eg the sound of a wheelchair, his footsteps, etc.).

In all examples, the sound effects are essential to understanding history. Of them is apparent not only semantic information but also reinforcing environment, emotions, from a subjective point of view. Ø

Ornamental: It acts as a value accessory that can enhance the environment in which elapses action, but is not required in history. Emphasizes the aesthetic aspect of the message.

Using effects in the current radio time signals. The listener organizes real time and also the radio. Eg sound that precedes a newsletter. The effect shown in many cases a change of content.
The effects are mostly found in the commercials, in masks, in comedy shows, in magazines ... The effects have not been sufficiently exploited and valued in the radio information (credibility / dominance of the word / making the maximum use of the phrase / belief that the effects detract from the character information).
