Sound Defines Picture

Audio is dominant and it also

determines the subjective

meaning of the image.

The same visual with

different audio can give

different meanings to the

viewer.

Sound Parallels Picture

Neither oral nor visual element is dominant. They only compliment

each other.

What you see is what you hear.

Picture Defines Sound

Picture helps define

sound by calling attention

to particular actions or

images.

The sound keeps

changing/evolving as the

picture changes/evolves to

bring the audience closer

to reality.

Sound and Picture

defines Effect The aural and visual

elements are different yet

complementary.

Together they create an

impact that neither could

do alone.

Neither sound nor

picture is dominant, and

although they are

parallel, they are

reinforcing each other to

produce a cumulative

effect.

Sound Counterpoints Picture

Both elements contain unrelated information that creates an effect or

meaning, not suggested by either elements alone.

Conclusion

Sound can alter Moods.

Sound influences how we re act to picture.

Sound is the most basic necessity of any production.

We can have long running successful production only with sound and no

visual, like in the case of radio, but the reverse is not possible.
