  Music- I chose to add music to the contrast edit to further differentiate the two clips. In the first you get a serene peaceful emotion and in the second you get an intense scary emotion. Even though its the same subject in both clips you get two very different emotions because of the different back ground music Non- d iegetic  sound- I chose to add off screen sound effects to the parallelism clip for comedic purposes. Its supposed to symbolize what the audiences reaction might be to the two of us. It's supposed to be funny because even though we are both doing the same thing the audience only likes the dog hence the cheering and booing when it shows me. Direct sound- I chose to keep the direct sound for the symbolism clip. It was only because i couldn't really think of any sounds or background music that would fit this clip. Plus towards the end of the pom poms clip you can hear them ruffle which I think is nice. Voice over- I chose to do a voice over for my simultaneity cl...

  Simultaneity- In the same moment, Offred is resting her head on the tub because she is hurt and Serena is sobbing on the floor waiting for a pregnancy test results. They're both hurting for different reasons, Serena more emotionally and Offred more physically. The scene jump cuts between the two of them. You can note how they're both in the same position kneeling with their heads down. I feel that this was done on purpose. I feel like they did this so you would feel bad for both of them even though Serena is in the wrong. Its supposed to show her perspective of the situation. Parallelism- This scene is "the kick". All three scenes are happening at the same time. You can tell because of the music that can be heard in all three dream states. Its supposed to show the intensity of the scene. Even though it is happening at the same time, time is passing differently for every dream state. The one with the van falling into the water being the slowest. Even though they are ...

  Contrast- I chose to show the contrast between my calm dog and when hes possessive of food. My dog is usually very sweet and loving except for when he thinks you're going to take his food. Then he will bite you. Complete 180. Parallelism- I chose to show my dogs eye, then my eye. I hoped to connect us and show our likeness and relationship using something we have n common. He sees me and I see him. Symbolism- I showed by cheer poms and what they result in. We use poms to help create great energy at games. Poms symbolize cheer. Simultaneity- While my dog sits in his chair I do homework. Those always happen at the same time because hes only up there when I'm doing homework. Leit Motiff- I got my inspiration from Jaws. Every time I showed my dog i wanted there to be a warning sound. It makes people think they should be afraid.
