(the modifiers are all over and the statement makes no sense. We can identify the subject: diegetic music. It's easy to get confused and pick film makers but an easy way to identify would be glance through the options. While reading, one can identify that each modifier connects with the music)
B. Actively referenced in the film rather than confined to the background, diegetic music is often used by film-makers
creating period dramas because it invokes a sense of ‘verisimilitude’, the idea that art can express a truthful version
of reality.
( the placement of modifiers makes sense and flows coherently. It perfectly conveys details about the diegetic music )
C. Film-makers creating period dramas often use diegetic music, which invokes a sense of ‘verisimilitude’, the idea that
art can express a truthful version of reality, because it is actively referenced in the film rather than confined to the
background.
( While this sounds correct, it is the music that is the subject not the film makers)
D. Film-makers who create period dramas often using diegetic music since it is music actively referenced in the film
rather than confined to the background, invoking a sense of ‘verisimilitude’, the idea that art can express a truthful
version of reality.
( 'since it is music actively' is flawed construction. since it is actively ....would have been fine. the word 'music' after it is redundant.)
E. Diegetic music, actively referenced in the film rather than confined to the background, invokes a sense of
‘verisimilitude’, the idea that art can express a truthful version of reality, and film-makers creating period dramas
use it often.
( One can get confused and pick this one. In such a case try eliminating all the modifiers in the middle to see if the rest of the statement makes sense.
Consider this : Diegetic music, the idea that art can express a truthful version of reality, and film-makers creating period dramas use it often. The statement makes no sense. )

Here in Option E, "invokes" is a verb. Is it not?
Then sentence below makes sense.
Diegetic music, invokes a sense of ‘verisimilitude’, the idea that art can express a truthful version of reality, and film-makers creating period dramas use it often. The statement makes no sense.
Let me know your thoughts. Tx
