INSTRUCTIONS

Week 11

We were given a brief on the assignment. There were also examples from seniors.

Students will given a choice of gameplay videos. They will then need to create the sound and bring the scene to life. Students will have to plan and organize their studio recording session for Foley and voice recording. They will also have access to the portable recorder if required.

TASK 2

Chosen Scene:
Fig.1.1. Alice in Wonderland - Storybook Read-Along (Gold Collection DVD)


Before we continued, our lecturer taught us how to reduce noise from an audio using:

  • Noise Reduction
  • Dynamics, noise gate & compressor
  • hard limited
  • Parametic Equalizer.
The part i chose is 9:10-11:28

I first recorded all the lines with my phone, I did it during midnight when its all silent and turned off the fan. Hiding in a blanket helped. 

After choosing the best take, I imported all the files into audition to edit. I added noise reduction and trimmed all the unnecessary parts. I also used dynamics with noise gate and compressor.

I then continued by adjusting all the volume so that all clips match. I realized my "S" was harsh so I utilised the deesser.

Following feedback, I added left right stereo for the cheshire cat and mad hatter. 

I then made a list of the sound effects needed:

FEEDBACK

Week 11

Should add Left and Right stereo for the characters so it seems like they're talking from elsewhere.

REFLECTION

Week 8-11

It was a very interesting project and I think out of all this, choosing the story and recording was the most difficult especially wihthout professional equipment. All in all, I enjoyed doing this,
