Firstly, an example of the audio being a reflection of the character and their actions could be where the farmer is shown running from the field and fumbling with his keys at the car. The audio during this is very quick paced and dramatic, it builds suspense and excitement to what is happening within the audience. The volume of this audio is also very loud, this adds to the building tension. Another example of audio within a shot that reflects the audience’s reactions would be where there is a close up of the woman’s foot twitching and as it stops there is a pause in sound followed by a sudden slicing sound where the farmer aggressively stabs a large bloody knife into the ground. The sound replicates the gasps the audience would ideally make in the eyes of the director. 

   

Towards the end of Lovefield there is short dialogue between the two characters, the audio for this doesn’t however make a big impact on the audience because their lips can easily be read and the emotion is more on their faces. Throughout Lovefield sub verse audio is used, this builds upon expectations of the audience and where the scene is going to become dramatic build to nothing. An example of this would be when the farmer takes the blanket out of his car and along with the visuals the audience is lead to believe that he is hiding a body due to the tense music, however it is then shown that the woman had given birth, this is when the audio changes to a softer, more upbeat melody, making the audio sub verse.

 

The purpose of the sounds in Lovefield range from informing the audience to entertaining them. An example of audio that informs would be the phone ringing, we know that this is informative because it doesn’t make the audience feel any specific emotion it just tells them that the phone is ringing. The audience would be the ambient dramatic music used at the start of the film, this entertains the audience because it sets the scene and allows the audience to create a feeling around the scene. 

Mainly, dialogue in sound elements is sued for story telling or painting a picture whether that be TV or radio. Dialogue can help a story move along or progress from the beginning to middle and then to end. 

Ambient sound are often recorded on busy streets or in public places with a boom mic. Boom microphone's pick up all sounds in a scene from every angle,  making the sound more realistic compared to if it was made digitally by composing multiple sounds, layered onto each other.
