This book draws on the lived experience of sounds capacity to move
and shake us in direct, subtle and profound ways through speech,
location sound, and music in documentary film. The associative,
connotative and sheer emotive power of sound has the capacity to
move and shake us in a myriad of direct, subtle and often profound
ways. The implications of this for its role as speech, location
sound, and music in documentary film are far-reaching. The writers
in this book draw on the lived experience of sounds resounding
capacity as primary motivation for exploring these implications,
united by the overarching theme of how listening is connected with
acts of making sense both on its own terms and in conjunction with
viewing. The resulting thirteen essays of Soundings: Documentary
Film and the Listening Experience cover films made from WWII to the
present day in locations across Europe and the Americas, and in
styles ranging from political propaganda, industrial promotion and
educative exposition, to more aesthetically-driven films taking
their bearings from avant-garde art. The authors draw on their
experience in scholarly research, practice-as-research, and in the
aesthetic and technical practice of documentary filmmaking. This
mix of perspectives aims to widen and deepen the outlook of the
recent and growing academic interest in the topic of documentary
film sound.
