Abstract:
In order to improve the story in a movie, sound is a crucial component. We can experience
the mood of the movie and the emotions it generates through sound. Here, the narrative of the
movie "Life in a Fishbowl" is significantly influenced by music. "Life in a Fishbowl" uses
music to accompany its scenes, giving the audience a more dramatic and immersive
experience of the characters' emotions.
Two emotional processes that humans can identify when listening to music are described in
the publication Perceiving Emotions in Music: Examining the Effects of Sound Quality,
Alexithymia, and Empathy (2023): (1) Observing emotion: music communicates the
emotions experienced by the listener; (2) Feeling emotion: music reflects the feelings
experienced by the listener. Moments in a film accompanied by music will certainly make us
feel the emotions in the film more strongly and help us connect with the characters and story
of the film.
