'The Shining' Opening Scene
The first sound that you hear an the beginning is the low sound of a trombone which is very mysterious and almost as is someone is prowling on its pray. However, this strongly contrasts with the scenery that is show, of a car calmly driving through a mountainous read. This is effective because it makes the audience feel like something is not right. In addition, there are eerie, almost scream-like which might suggest that something dreadful is happening and maybe even causing pain to them or someone they know therefore they are screaming. But again, because it is such a big contrast between the sound and the scenery this makes the audience feel confused.
Also, it is a non-diegetic sound because there is no source of music on screen and therefore is a background music.
