Week 5 Prompt 1

Sound is used to emphasis the action that occurs during scenes in a film. This works well with animated films as the sound is able to set the ambiance of the scene that is being shown to the audience. By adding sound in the film Steamboat Willie, it allows for the characters as well as the audience to embark on a journey on the boat considering the film revolves around music. Each character played a specific tune which further emphasizes how they all had a meaningful role to be played throughout the film. This also allowed for the characters to be given an identity which is important for the story that the film proceeds to share.
