Sound is so important to our consumption of media, and our creation of media. It’s is probably the most important element of tying together any story or edited piece of footage but is often forgotten about because it isn’t ~seen!. The thing is, when sound is done well, we don’t notice it but when it is missing from a piece or not perfected it is hard to look beyond. I am not musically talented in any way but sound is an imperative part of my days. There’s not a moment in my life that passes without me having a soundtrack playing in my headphones or my head. Music, and what is means to me and how it’s affected my life has been and will always be really important to me.

We were given a chance to experiment with a Zoom H2/N recorder during the second part of our workshop today. Justin and I went out into the world and had a play around. It was a great exercise to get out there and experiment with our levels and how outside noises can affect our end product. This is a big thing to think about heading into the production of our PB3, and how we’re going to need to think about our filming locations to we can limit the amount of outside noises or disruptions that could affect our product.
