| Abstract |
By analyzing the structures of the sound tracks of JUDOU, this thesis aims to reveal Zhang Yimou's high sensitivity and his cinematic expertise. The structural analysis of these sound tracks aims to e...xplain the relationship between the sound tracks as the audio expression and the stroy itself. The audio component of this movie is characterized by its restrained usage―only two musical melodies and sound effects such as Chinese gongs, jingling of horse bells, running water, birds calling, and dying machines rattling. These sounds connote a certain meaning, similar to a leitmotif. Therefore, these sounds are not intended to only accompany the visual content but also narrate the story more clearly. JUDOU, despite its seemingly predictable plot, contains many bold experimental challenges in terms of its audio effects.show more
