Extra Sound

In todays lesson we realised that each of our shots has their own quality of noise and when watching it through it makes it seem un even because the quality and level of background noise keeps changing throughout and is still slightly noticeable despite the music over the top, so we wanted to get some sort of background noise that could be played quite quietly and would act as a sound bridge and maintain a certain level of quality throughout the title sequence. I went up to the music tech room to look at some of the effects and sounds they had on the computers up there and found an ambient sound of a tape recorder and then looped it a couple times and exported it to my memory stick. We also wanted to have a sound play over our production company logo so that it looked a little bit more professional and more like actual films, so while i was in the music tech room i found a sound which would be perfect to use for that as it had the right sound to it.

In this time, Fred and Nicole had been sorting out the shot of the alarm clock because it had a hissing sound in the background which we didn't want so they were cutting out all the sound apart from when the alarm goes off and the character turns it off as we needed those sounds. After, we uploaded the production sound in and faded it out in the right place, we then also uploaded the background noise of the tape recorder and looped it over and over so it played through the whole thing to add to mystery and more tension, we also overlapped them a little each time we looped it so that it flowed well and constantly played and then finally put the volume down quite alot so that it wasn't obvious.
