In film there are two common types of sound. These are diegetic and non-diegetic.
Diegetic sounds are those of which both the characters and audience can hear. These come in the form of character dialouge and the movement of objects within the shot.
Diegetic sounds are also known as 'actual sounds'.
Non-diegetic sounds are sounds of which only the audience can hear. These come in the form of narration and tension-creating music. Diegetic sounds can also be referred to as 'commentary sounds'.
