This work argues that sound design represents a powerful narrative force within the larger narrative of a film. The major component of this project is a DVD with multiple sound designs (each containing a different narrative context) available for a single short film. The written component looks at sound design and its components, and then examines sound design through the lens of Fisher's Theory of Narrativity. It is found that sound design does exhibit the characteristics of providing a "reliable, trustworthy, and desirable guide to thought and action in the world." It is also shown that using the principles of Schema Theory enables sound designers to maximize the narrative impact that sound design has over a broad audience. / Department of Telecommunications
