sound on film

during the last class the discussion on the way sound enhances the emotional reaction from the audience came up, i think that the examples that were shown of the avant guard films and the classes reaction to them was based on the image itself as well as sound. the highly technical early animations we saw seemed to not be entertaining with the wrong soundtrack which is why i didn't enjoy them so much, which is why i think Norman Mclaren who created the sounds by drawing them on the film was so successful. by choreographing the animation that he painted on the film with music he also paints on the film he personifies the animation or the line n the animation which can often give it a form of narrative. similarly to the early animation we saw Norman Mclaren hand makes all his films frame by frame as well as the music which is all kind of shown in the video below.
