Sound Task: Taken


The diegetic sound that we hear through out the clip is the engines of the planes that are either taking off or landing. From this the audience can identify that the location of the clip is located at an airport. The dialogue that the characters engage in suggest that this is more of an action film as the protagonist is using imperatives to try and gain information on the two missing Americans. The sounds of vehicles could also suggest that they are running on roads due to the screeching of tyres and beeping of horns from the truck before it killed the target.

The non-diegetic music that starts when the protagonist drives plays to suit the theme of violence or as though a battle is commencing. The background music then stops to a halt as though the protagonist has given up on the target as he may be in a disadvantage for when he is chasing him down. The mysterious music starts as he is moving away from the scene to suggest a form of disequilibrium that must be solved in order for his goals to be accomplished.
