Sound Project Reflection

Assignment Description:

For this project, we worked in pairs to develop a 1-2 minute soundscape describing a scene with action.

The plot of the story had to be carried out with only sound; the only thing visible could be a black screen or a still shot related to the storyline. If we wanted to use words, we had a limit of 7 total to use, and they had to relate to our plot of the story. We also had to add in a minimum of 4 homemade foley sounds.  


Planning/ development:

My partner and I decided to develop a scene of a lady leaving a restaurant and being a firsthand witness to a nearby car crash.

To carry out our idea, we created a word document with a rundown of our scenes, the sounds we were going to use within each scene, and we labelled which sounds we were going to make our "foley sounds."

Once the planning was done, we used the website Pixabay (https://pixabay.com/sound-effects/search/youtube/) to collect premade sounds like background chatter, plates clattering, glass breaking, etc. We also recorded our foley sounds in addition to the premade ones.

After all were done, we used Adobe Premiere to join the audio components and layer them in proportion to our story.


Reflection:

I think that my partner and I could've worked better on a few of the foley sounds, and the placement of other audios. Despite this, the action that is occurring is quite clear and can be interpreted correctly.
