Workshop 4: How does Music enhance the story?

Diegetic Sound - Sounds added to a scene e.g Music
Non - Diegetic Sound - Sounds that happen naturally to a scene e.g footsteps, wind

Chords + Major - Written in a major key, has a happy tone.
Minor - Written in a minor key, as a sad gloomy, morose tone.

Tempo - Speed
  ↱ Fast - Could walk quickly too, makes the music feel energetic, gives movement/pace.
  ↱ Moderate - mic of both
  ↱ Slow - Dragging feet pace, makes the music feel lethargic, boring, energy lacking, sleep.

Dynamics - Volume
  ↱ Loud (Forte) - gets viewer attention, enhances emotion/mood - makes happy, happier etc.
  ↱ Quiet (Piano) - Either background noise or used to make the viewer focus
  ↱ Changing - ＜ - quiet to loud  - builds intensity
                         ＞ - loud to quite - draws focus
Music Examples:
