Champs d’étude [CdE]> Empathetic Sound : Music whose mood or
rhythm matches with the mood with the mood or rhythm of the
action onscreen. Anempathetic Sound : Sound–usually diegetic
music–that seems to exhibit conspicuous indifference to what is
going on in the film’s plot, creating a strong sense of the
tragic. For example, when a radio continues to play a happy tune
even as the character who first turned it on has died. (Source :
