It was almost like she was making magic happen with food. All the great smells that ran through the house during the holidays was a joy, just to know that I would be filling my stomach with magic that my mom prepared, was always a great feeling. Once I started to be a teenager, I loved watching food shows. Back then in the…
Mary Berry Quotes states, "I think baking is very rewarding, and if you follow a good recipe, you will get success." I consider myself to be not so bad at baking.

A dish that has made by many generations before me. A family recipe that I can't make. One time I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to make…
A sizzling pan is pictured as we hear, “This is drugs. This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?” The egg is cracked and cooks over the heat. This commercial has been etched in my memory since childhood. The issue of legalizing drugs has been debated even longer.

For the purposes of my analysis I have chosen the restaurant scene from Francis Coppola’s “The Godfather”. The reason being is that the scene is intense and sound design plays an immense role in it. The use of it complements the visuals brilliantly and helps the viewer understand what is happening in the characters’ heads. The scene is full of suspense and a balanced mixture of diegetic and non-diegetic sounds accurately underlines that. The whole scene is “framed” by the sound from the…
