Soundscape Project

     I learnt a lot off this project, I learnt basic transitions when using Adobe Premiere Pro, and learnt ways to merge and manage volumes of sounds throughout projects. I learnt basic skills like mixing audios in with different sounds and how to layer different audios.

    For this project we were required to brainstorm a 1-2 minute video comprising of different audios, sound effects, and auditory techniques. We would have to make our own plot and use only sounds to represent to present and convey the story.

    My approach to this project was developing a story of a character (myself) going to take a test in another class. The brainstorming sheet helped a lot, both me and my teammate were able to note our different ideas and what sounds we would try to mimic during the production using either Foley techniques or online sources. With the outline we were able to organize what sounds would come after another in a chronological order with how the story progresses. 

    For my editing software, I utilized Adobe Premiere Pro to edit my soundscape project.

     I think me and my partner did a good job for beginner when it came t editing and incorporating audios with each other. I think we were able to smoothly transition between sounds and make it feel smooth, but obviously need a lot f work before it sounds perfect. I did struggle a lot with audios and their background noise (ex. white noise, AC, people who aren't apart of the background chatter sounds talking.) but feel on most audios I was able to keep them silent only showing what's meant to be heard. I hope for future projects I'll have enough practice to be able to correctly import audios and transitions even better to smoothly convey the plot.
