propaganda

The viewing of different documentaries has led me to taking a closer look at how sound has been used in propaganda films. for example this russian film about rising up to fight the nazis


Youtube has been a good source of these videos and i find it fascinating to see how these were used to unit the population to fight against the nazis.  i like how as the russian character rises up to fight the music becomes more triumphant and celebratory which must have had a positive effect on the russians at the time who fought.

But while i'm interested in going down this route i'm still no closer to a proper question for study and it's getting late on in the term which is making it harder and harder to work.
