Music is constant through out this clip. The music helps to set the mood of the scene, in this case creating a happy and peaceful atmosphere, displaying the school positively. If it wasn't constant, the areas where the music stopped would be significant, but the entire scene is significant, therefore the music runs through all the time. The music links the sequence together, as the music starts at the beginning of the scene, and when it stops, its a change of scene. Although the duration of the music remains constant until the end of the sequence, the volume and pitch changes; for example, when Professor Xavier introduces the name for the mutants 'X-men' the pitch changes from high to low, making the word stand out.
The reason the voice over doesn't over lap the dialogue, is so we can concentrate on what the individuals say, meaning the characters talking doesn't distract from the narration. There is very little dialogue in this sequence, and the dialogue that is used is used to introduce the characters names and personality, for example, we first meet Bobby in this sequence, and he has cleverly introduced himself to the audience by in the clip introducing himself to Rogue.
The sound effects, such as the basket balls bouncing, and children running, make the sequence seem more realistic, drawing you into the college atmosphere. They also exaggerate and bring more attention to the visual aspects of the clip. For example, when the frozen fire falls to the ground, this shocks and has a larger impact on the audience because of the sound effects.
