In this scene from the film based of the classic Agatha Christie novel "Death on the Nile" many audio topics are heard throughout the piece. Two of the most prominent aspects would be the Space of the sound and the Listening Modes used. This clip uses the eagle cries, cicada chirps to create a large, vast open area in which the characters converse in. While also when the boulder falls, the trill of the background music adds a sense of direction. The direction being down because of the lofty position of the boulder. While the Space of the clip is portrayed quite well, the Listening modes is as well. The clip used many experiences of Casual sounds which are literal things we hear in life ( in example: footsteps, hawk cries, children babbling etc). Also the clip uses a fair amount of Semantic sound, otherwise known as representational sound. An example of this type of sound would be the background music in the clip and how it increases, decreases or crescendos at different points of the film. Most prominently when it is needed. All in all this clip is an excellent source of audio editing and sound manipulation, because over all, what is a movie without sound?
