Contrapuntal sound used alongside film
Whilst looking into pre world war one films, i found a youtube clip of the film 'Le Voyage dans la lune' which had a really interesting 21st century soundtrack alongside it which conflicts against the primitive visual created. I found it very interesting to be watching this very old depiction of what it would be like to visit the moon against a modern day sound with a metallic feel to it, very reminiscent of a science fiction soundtrack at times. This was completely contrapuntal to what I was seeing which reminded me of the kind of methods seen in some of Tarantino's work where the non-diegetic sound was contrapuntal to the onscreen forcing the audience to consider how they felt and how to react rather than relying on the sound to provide auditory cues for them. This soundtrack is a modified version of Paradise by Air. In the future I would like to look into the use of metallic sound when creating a mood and representing a time period or situational factors through sound. Contrapuntal sound is definitely something I would like to experiment with throughout my work
