The Audience

Audiences listen to the soundtrack in films and tv in so many different ways nowadays because of mobile devices, cinema, home entertainment systems, pirate films, streaming and many more. obviously the best way to listen to a soundtrack is in the cinema. The reason for cinemas being the best for listening to the soundtrack is that cinemas are set up perfectly so that the sound is delivered to the audience just the way the director wanted, this is because the walls are padded so there is no echoing of sound which makes it sound crisp, also where the speakers are placed has a big impact to making it sound like certain sounds are coming from certain areas, which makes you feel like you are in that environment.

The Sounds

In the first 30 seconds of the clip there are lots of sounds and noises going on, in the first 2 seconds of the clip we can hear some music playing which would have been recorded inside a studio because it would have been ridiculous trying to record it on set. The noise of the crashing and banging on the wooden door could have been recorded on set for a real sounding crash or could have been done with foley as well because they could have created just as good of a sound in post recording. The shouting from the orcs would have been pre recorded and added to the sequence in editing.
