Sound

Sound: 

Diegetic sound: sounds/ music made by or able to be heard by the characters within the narrative.

Non-diegetic sound: sounds like accompanying music, used to create mood. Sound that does not come from the world of the narrative.

(Breaking the fourth wall - talking/ acting directly towards the camera. This becomes non-diegetic because you are not talking to other characters. This is because it has become non-naturalistic - the other characters cannot hear what is being said).
