P6: Carry out post-production edits to the sound elements
I recorded 5 different sound effects that I planned to use in my radio segment. The 5 sound effects I have recorded and the edited version of them:
- Customer taking order: https://youtu.be/FyDmczDoR58
- Baby and mother: https://youtu.be/T5Rl7TiEgX4
- Children’s playing: https://youtu.be/i963GLxGx14
- Café atmosphere: https://youtu.be/n6pr7UBIDbM
- Birds tweeting: https://youtu.be/E7B7UBQQ6k8
The reason I decided to record these sound effects because I felt like it would set the tone for the interviewee and would allow the audience to visualise what the interviewees would be talking about. Before the interviewee started speaking for the second and third interview, I added the sound effects I recorded for that interview, in order to set the tone for the audience. So, for the interview with my family member and her being a mother of 3, I added the children playing just before in order to set the tone.
However, I didn’t want it to be too noticeable and flow in just right before she speaks, in order for me to achieve this I needed to edit this well. I used Garage band to do this. I adjusted the volume levels in order for it to flow in and flow out efficiently. This is evidence of me editing the sound effect of the children playing.
This is a Screen recording of how I edited the sound levels for the children playing
In order to make the sound effect flow I adjusted the sound levels to be softer/louder depending on the sound by using the automation tool and then I changed the sound waves depending on how I wanted it to be and what I thought will be best. For the children playing I changed the automation levels by making the sound flow in and flow out smoothly in order for the cut between the interviews to not be sharp.
