My (no longer) silent film, with sound!

This is my silent film, with added sound. It could do with some work, but I like the its I managed to finish.  

In film sound is actually very important. It's immersive, and adds more emotion to the film. For my film, it made certain scenes hit harder, such as the door closing, making the audience hear it's heft, and the Thief's  impact, which now sounds much more painful.

In other films, sounds are used. Music helps convey emotion, and sounds are used to help the audience be sucked into the film. Many sounds are are actually unrelated to what they are linked with on-screen, but the human eye, puts 2 and 2 together, and makes it work. Such as scrabbling at dust, that scratching, and then being shown a car skid on ice. The audience sees and hears it as sliding on hard ice, rather then dry dirt.

With no sound, the outside world could easily distract the audience, and many scenes would just not be effective, especially dialogue. Although a lack of sound in certain scenes actually can prove to be effective. But the reason for this, is because there is normally loads of sound bombarding an audience, and the lack of sound is different. Sound is way more important then many people realise. Sound is great.
