Rough Cut #2

Sound Design

What I have tried to do

• Added in the atmospheric sound to set the atmosphere
• Attempt to replace the original audio of the breaking news in the footage by editing it and matching the action of the character with the information mentioned in the news
• Use a variety of sounds and layer them to make the scene more realistic

What needs to be improved

• 0:00
• The sound of rain is too sudden so it could be adjusted to fade in from low volume to higher volume
• The sound of rain is a bit too hard to tell and could replace it with a different audio
• Still, a murmuring sound in the background so might want to replace it with a quiet ambient sound
• 0:15 - 0:25
• Footsteps are heard to be a bit fast compared to the walk so might need to adjust the position so that the audio matches the action
• 0:19 - 0:20
• The sound of thunderstorms seems to have  cut a not flowing smoothly so a tension sound could be added before the thunderstorms continue to overlap the cut
• 0:29 - 0:31
• Blood splashing and stabbing action sound too fake and should consider lowering the volume for a more realistic effect
• 0:32
• Heavy breathing is a bit too loud which sounds weird and the volume should be lowered down
• 0:44
• There is a cut in between the 2 shots so should only use the sound of one footage and duplicate it for the next footage to have a smooth effect
• 1:07 - 1:33
• The background music of the breaking news is too loud so needed to be smaller
• 1:40
• There is a discontinuity of sound when the scene cuts from a wide shot to a close-up of the character's shoes
• 1:48
• The sound of the housekeeper cleaning the classroom got caught so would need to replace it with an ambient sound

What I will do next

• Sound Design
•  Improve the audio of the shots according to the above section
• Add in tension and dramatic sound effects
• Add in sound effects during the transition of shots
• Transitions
• Add in match cut, dissolve cut, and glitching transitions
• Title ident
• Add in the title ident of the production company
• Add in the credits for the director, actor and the final title ident of WHO ARE YOU?
