Sound is an aural element of film. It is used to establish tone/atmosphere as well as provoking thoughts and emotions within the audience.Also it 'suspends disbelief' which is used to create realism for the viewer. Sound also gives the audience clues about the plot and characters and also helps us to identify the genre of the film. Without sound you would only have half a product or the film wouldn't be as good as it could be, George Lukas (director of Star Wars) says that 'sound is 50%'.
Over the course of film history there have been many developments in sound and sound design. Sound design is the plan for the aural elements. We now have the technology to make sure that a films sound is a 3 dimensional, visceral experience, which makes the film as enjoyable to hear as it is to watch.
Soundscape is digetic (natural) and non-digetic (Narration, soundtrack, etc.), and is also how it sets the mood on any given scene.
