"Paranoia /ˌpærəˈnɔɪə is a thought process believed to be heavily influenced by anxiety or fear, often to the point of irrationality and delusion."
Bearing this definition in mind, we came up with the thought of distorting sounds at times the audience wouldn't expect them showing the characters irrationality to the situation he was in.
Using the links below I found out more about paranoia to influence my distorted sounds. The research suggested to me I make the sounds static and loud with also loops and make the sounds almost fuzzy as he's trying to calm himself and collect his thoughts. It will also show him trying to block sounds out by using moments of pure silence. By looking at why people become paranoid it made me think about how atmospheric the place sould sound to them with some sounds emphasised e.g. - talking and movement.
What is paranoia?
It is common to have suspicious thoughts or worries about other people from time to time. These fears are described as paranoid when they are exaggerated and not based in fact. There are three key features of paranoid thoughts:
- you fear that something bad will happen
- you think that others are responsible
- your belief is exaggerated or unfounded
Why do people become paranoid?
Researchers say our emotions have a big influence on how we interpret the actions of other people and events that are part of our lives.
When people are anxious, they are more likely to interpret events in a negative or fearful way, and they are more likely to expect bad things to happen to them.
