  • Eg. 'come on ladies hustle' 
• footsteps
• whistle
• dialogue:
  • punks - slang 
  • geeks -  Impersonating 
  • couple - sappy and cringey

Non-diagetic/ background music:

• music changes from football field, - whistles and yelling, to lovey dovey couple - strong base, to punks - heavy metal/ rock, freaks and geeks - to country-like music

The non-diagetic sounds shows the characters personalities and what stereotypical high school clique they fit into

The diagetic sounds make the scene realistic and without them it would be strange
