music and sound effects, both diagetic and non-diagetic

The James Bond serise set the apprpriet sound that a spy thriller should have. This is a clean guitar sound in the tune of E and G. This included a simle bass line underneath as well as an orchestra. This goes well with the elaborte ways of James Bond films, however, for less elaborate thrillers the use of synths and simple ambiant non-diagetic sounds.

Most of the diagetic sound in thrillers comes mostly from the effects the characters create; from gun shots and the empty shell echoing on the ground, to the simple hum of a computer and the clicking of the keys. this makes the scene relateable as they are familiar sounds that the audience would expect to hear, therefore increasing the effect of the scene. This also cuts down any cheesey over the top use of garage band and non-diagetic sound which may seem too unproffessional.
