The video tutorial explains the difference between diegetic and non-diegetic audio. Diegetic audio is sound that originates from within the scene, such as characters talking or music playing from a visible source. Non-diegetic audio, on the other hand, includes sounds like narration or background scores that are not part of the scene itself. The main distinction is whether the characters can hear the audio. The video concludes with a call to action for viewers to subscribe.
