Types of Sound

Sound Bites: Constructed by editors during postproduction, sound bites are short( usually less than 10 seconds) extracts from recording interviews.

Stand Ups: Often used as and alternative to a voiceover or combination of the two. The reporter appears in front of the camera to narrate part of the story, most often the beginning and/or very end.

Narration: A commentary delivered to accompany a broadcast. It is the action or process of narrating the story.

Natural Sound: The sound obtained when capturing b-roll. As b-roll visually supports the spoken word narrative, the sound that was obtain through the shot gives the viewers a greater impact (when Nat Sound is incorporated in the background).

Foley: The addition of recorded sound effects after the shooting of a film. Matches live sound affects with the action of the picture.
