Sound Projects

 During the period that we learned about different sound techniques like diegetic sound, non-diegetic sound, sound motif, sound bridge, sound perspective, synchronous sound, non-synchronous sound, and voice-over. We also saw examples of each one being used in big movies. 

Sound Project #1 

For this project we had to create a 1-2 minute long story using only sound effects and using 7 words or less. I chose to do the story about a medieval war and used 4 foley sounds that were the following: Drawing sword, the heavy thud of a ram striking a gate, the heavy thud of armored boots, and the swish of debris being cleared. During brainstorming I thought about what scene I could make, what sounds would be present during the scene, and how I could make the plot understandable using only sound. The outline I made helped me organize the sounds by making me able to see all the sounds I needed to use at one time and the time they had to go away.  I used Clipchamp to edit the sounds. I think I did well putting toghether the sounds and layering them. I would like to improve the amount of foley sounds I used to make it a more personal experience.

I chose to add walking sounds, people talking in the background, the sound of a door being opened, and tried to add a lot of sound that would not be percieved at first but makes sense to add. During brainstorming I watched the One Word Film project many times to make sure I got most of the sounds that would normally be in the clip. My outline helped me organize my sounds by giving me a plan of what needed to happen in the scene and when each sound should occur. I think I did well in choosing what sound to add and searching the sounds, but I would want to improve way the sounds got in and out of play.
