Trainspotting Homework

The start of the scene uses non diegetic sound (a voice over) this sets the mood for the start of the film and instantly connects us with the main character as we are hearing his thoughts. The sound then moves into diegetic dialog which says alot of pointless personal jokes about drug use between the characters 'But he knows a lot about Sean Connery’ this dialog is designed to make the audience laugh due to the random non related topic. The director then uses non diegetic sound as it goes back into the voice over again, letting us hear the character joke to himself as he leaves the room ‘of course i will have another one.’ Before leading into a bridge which has the sounds of train horns and a train on a track which is used as the title of the film is shown on the screen. This is used as the sound relates to the name of the film 'Trainspotting'.


As the noise of the train slowly fades out the sound bridges again to non diegetic as a piece of music begins to play. The music is classical music which is used to create humour and show a contrast between what we are seeing and what he is thinking as the music used is asynchronous sound as it does not relate to the topic of rehabilitation and creates the illusion that this is his normal everyday routine. The sound then tracks back to a non diegetic voice over listing the materials needed to quit drugs. The voice over is used to create humour and disgust as he begins his battle to quit taking heroine. The director creates these feeling through the use of pornography and the three buckets used for the three bodily fluids. There is then some more non diegetic sound placed over the music as another voice over is heard the voice over says 'my mother who is in her own domestically and socially expectable way a drug addict' tells us that he has been brought up around drugs so what he is doing now is normal for him. The scene then ends with diegetic sound as the main character meets a dealer called micky, however he brings the wrong drug he relies by saying ‘the f*** are these' this is used to create humour to finish of the scene.
