Diegetic sounds come from a source within the world of the film, TV or theatre such as dialogue or background sounds, while non-diegetic sounds do not come from a source in the film’s world like dialogue, music or sound effect. Offscreen space refers to areas of the diegesis not present in the frame. Unlike diegetic sound, frontality, or 100% mode, where characters directly face the camera, offscreen sound reveals to the viewer the world outside of the frame and the representational boundaries. Offscreen sound or a character’s response to offscreen presence is used to create spatial relations between sound and image. Their combination is often used in different ways:
- Silent offscreen: the sound is absent
- Silent onscreen: the sound is absent within the frame
- Diegetic onscreen sound: sound comes from the sources within the frame, including dialogues and objects, often refered to as 100% or setka
- Diegetic offscreen sound: sound occurs out of the frame and contributes to the offscreen context, often refered to as 99%
- Diegetic internal sound: sounds from the character, such as internal monologues, or self-converse
- Non-diegetic sound: commentary or nonliteral sound, such as the musical score, comes from outside of the story
Since the inception of 1518 radio in 2010, the radio station has shown an enthusiastic interest in producing audio content that goes beyond on-air broadcasts. This has resulted in the creation of the diegetic offscreen sound content, named 1518 Off. The team has been working to enhance its repertoire, including the unattended cycle, and the ongoing operation of 1518 radio it, as well as its various associated projects. The 1518 Off has proven to be a significant addition to the usual on-air broadcasts and has been well-received by the project’s enthusiasts, as evident from the positive feedback that the station regularly receives
Diegesis refers to the storytelling element where events are conveyed within a narrative framework to create a comprehensive and cohesive story. This term is commonly used in the film industry where the sequence of events is presented in a way that tells a story. Diegesis can be characterized by various elements such as the plot, characters, dialogue, off and setting, which all work together to produce a complete narrative. The concept of diegesis is also widely used in literature for the same purpose. In this context, the author employs various techniques and literary devices to convey information about the story’s world as well as the characters and plot. By understanding the concept of diegesis, one can better appreciate and analyze the storytelling techniques and narrative structures used in different forms of media
