Baby Driver -Sound Analysis

To begin with: the diegetic sounds of the cars, and the general mumble of the busy road sets the scene for this clip. The main thing to focus on in this scene however would be the music that the main character is listening to through his earphones, because although we can see him play it, and we are aware of where the music’s coming from within the film (which would suggest that it is a diegetic sound), the fact that none of the other characters can hear it, and that the music continues playing when the camera pans outside the car would suggest  music’s non-diegetic.

Continuing with this first initial scene, the camera moments do tend to be solely based on the beat go the music at this point in the film, the frame being switched to a different characters face every other beat, and the characters motions almost matching the beat of the music once they get out of the car and walk to the bank, this gives off quite an orderly vibe, in the sense that this entire ‘mission’ has being thought out so thoroughly that even their movements match each others; an I think it’s because of this serious tone set by the three bank robbers that it feels as though there is such a drastic change in mood when Baby starts singing and dancing along to the music in such a comical way.
