Sound Chunks

     In this semester we have started a class reserved for Soundscape education under Professor Matt Zogaric. In this class, we've learned to edit our sound for our production along with finding crafty ways in providing our own sound effects, not only including dialogue but also foley, the sound within the environment and background, as opposed to the main sound effects that get the spotlight.

    For our production, we split our areas of sound editing into three sections, beginning, middle, and end, one for each member, Alisa, me, and EJ. I was in charge of the middle section of our film and we've been nicknaming them Sound Chunks.

    It was around this time where we all got to record our foley sounds, that included comic book flopping, fireplace sound, drawer opening, duffel bag movement, etc. We rented the "podcasting" booth in the University Library for a few hours and we each got turns inside to record our sound. We also used this space a few weeks ago to record new dialogue. Unfortunately this booth was not as soundproof as we were heard outside but it was good enough environment to record what we needed.

    Next to this, we've had interesting practice sessions for soundscape next to our productions. What awaits in the next few weeks I wonder and I hope is just as interesting.
