Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | If a scene, response or view is shown in total silence, often the audience may simply think the sound is out on their TV or movie theater. Having a background noise that is normally drowned out by foreground noise — a quiet wind, faint crickets chirping, etc. — is a marker to say "nothing is happening" to the audience; the slight sound is actually Quieter Than Silence. The Manga Unsound Effect shiiiiiiin[1] does the same thing. A visual of a tumbleweed blowing across the scene is used in Westerns, and nowadays mainly in comedies, to convey the same effect. A low rumbling is often also used, to simulate that sort of feeling a person gets in their ears in a dark, quiet room. |
