What are Ambient Sounds?

This content has been automatically translated from Ukrainian.
Ambient sounds (Ambience), also known as background or ambient sound, are background sounds that are typically included in the audio accompaniment of a film, video, or video game to add depth and realism. They help create a sensory impression of the surroundings or location.
For example, if a scene takes place in a forest, ambient sounds may include rustling leaves, birdsong, sounds of the wind, and other natural sounds. If the scene takes place in an urban environment, ambient sounds may include traffic noise, the hum of human voices, ringing phones, barking dogs, and so on.
These sounds are usually recorded on location or taken from sound effect archives. They typically have a low volume and are mixed with other sound elements, such as dialogue, music, sound effects, and foley, to create a full soundscape.
Ambient sounds play an important role in creating the atmosphere and mood of a scene, and help immerse the viewer in the surrounding environment.
