30 Seconds long.
The more I mess around with sound software and effects the more I like it, I really didn't think I'd be that interested in this type of work but it's really quite interesting to try and get the mood/ atmosphere of a sound-scape right.
Basically we had to gather,layer and mess around with sound ambience to create a setting. I chose the shoreline, hopefully from the audio up there you can kinda picture that or at least piece it together from the noises and effects I used. Also used were echo effects and panning to try and alter the piece to make it sound how I felt it should. Its strange that by doing this you can actually create a detailed narrative through audio only. I'd definitely recommend this task to anybody interested in storytelling as it could really get you to think differently and maybe more out of the box instead of confining you to just pen and paper or visual practice.
Most of this piece was done on Mac software Soundtrack Manager Pro. A very fun, and I found user friendly, programme which I got the hang of quickly which is something as I'm a bit of a technophobe. Sounds were layered and altered using effects then exported over into Adobe After Effects to make a MPEG 4 file ready to be uploaded on to my blog.
